Fitment on a used steering rack varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
The Peugeot 407 was produced from 2004 to 2011 and received a facelift in 2008, which brought revised styling and some mechanical updates. When sourcing a used steering rack, it is worth knowing which side of that 2008 boundary your car falls on, as components can differ. Always quote your registration to the breaker so they can confirm the exact specification.
Your 2006 car is pre-facelift and your 2009 car is post-facelift, so they sit either side of the 2008 boundary and there is a real risk the racks are not directly interchangeable. Engine size can also affect which rack was fitted, so confirm both the year and engine with the breaker against your registration before ordering. Never assume a cross-boundary part will swap straight in.
Trim level alone — whether SE, GLX, Executive or similar — does not affect which steering rack was fitted to a Peugeot 407. What actually matters is the engine size and whether the car is pre- or post-facelift, so focus on matching those details rather than the badge. Cosmetic differences between trim levels (interior, alloys, etc.) are irrelevant to the rack itself.
Yes, engine size can influence the steering rack fitted, as heavier or more powerful engines place different demands on the steering geometry and rack specification. A 2.7 HDi or 3.0 V6 may carry a different rack to a 1.6 HDi or 2.0 petrol, so always tell the breaker your exact engine when requesting a quote. Matching engine size as well as year is the safest approach.
The 407 was offered in saloon and SW estate body styles, and the steering rack specification is primarily driven by engine size and model year rather than body style. That said, it is worth confirming with the breaker that the part number matches your registration, as there can be subtle differences across variants. Always verify against your specific vehicle rather than assuming body style makes no difference.
Power steering rack wear and leaks are a known issue on the 407, so used replacements are fairly available through UK breakers. However, not any rack will do — you need to match the year range (pre- or post-2008 facelift) and your engine size to get the right unit. Give the breaker your full registration so they can check the part against your car's exact specification before you commit.
