A buyer's guide to used Peugeot 408 axle

No two axles are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:

Fitment questions

What years does the Peugeot 408 cover and are there any major generation changes I need to know about?

The Peugeot 408 first generation ran from 2010 to 2014, and the second generation launched in 2022 as a completely new platform and body style. These two generations share no running gear, so axle parts are not interchangeable between them. Always confirm the exact generation with your breaker against your registration before ordering.

Will an axle from a 2011 408 fit my 2013 408?

Both years sit within the first-generation 408 (2010–2014), so you are working within the same platform and fitment is generally more likely to be compatible. That said, confirm with your breaker using your registration, as engine size can influence axle and brake specification even within a generation.

Does a first-generation 408 axle (2010–2014) fit the second-generation 408 (2022 onwards)?

No — the 2022 408 is an entirely new model on a different platform from the 2010–2014 car, so axle components from the two generations are not interchangeable. Make sure you specify which generation you own when contacting a breaker, and always confirm against your registration plate.

Does the trim level — for example Active versus Allure — affect which axle I need for my 408?

Trim level alone does not determine axle fitment on the 408; running gear specification follows engine size and platform generation rather than trim name. An Active and an Allure on the same generation with the same engine are likely to use the same axle components. Be aware that minor cosmetic differences between strip-outs are possible, and you should still confirm the exact part with your breaker against your registration.

Does engine size matter when sourcing a used 408 axle from a breaker?

Yes — larger or more powerful engines can be paired with uprated brakes and heavier-duty axle components compared with smaller-engined versions of the same car. When contacting a breaker, give them your engine size and registration as well as the generation, so they can match the correct specification. Never assume an axle from a different engine variant will be a direct swap without checking.

I need to know which side axle to ask for — does NS or OS matter on the 408?

Yes, nearside (NS, passenger side) and offside (OS, driver side) axle components such as driveshafts and wishbones are side-specific and not interchangeable. Always tell your breaker clearly which side you need, and double-check by identifying the worn or damaged component on your own vehicle before ordering. Fitting the wrong side will mean the part will not locate correctly.
