Used steering racks vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The first-generation 5008 ran from 2009 to 2017, so a 2012 and a 2016 are both within the same generation and a rack from that earlier car is a strong candidate to fit. However, there were updates across that production run and engine variants could influence the rack specification, so confirm the part against your exact registration with the breaker before buying.
The second-generation 5008 launched in 2017 on a completely new platform, making it a different vehicle from the 2009-2017 original, so a rack from the first generation is very unlikely to cross over. Treat these as separate searches and confirm against your registration with the breaker to be certain.
Yes, engine size can influence steering rack specification on the 5008, particularly between smaller petrol units and the larger or higher-output diesel engines, as power-assisted steering systems are sometimes rated differently. Always give the breaker your full registration so they can match the rack to your exact engine variant rather than just the model name.
Trim level - whether Active, Allure, GT or any other - does not affect steering rack fitment on the 5008, as the rack is determined by the generation and engine rather than the trim grade. You may find minor cosmetic differences on parts removed from different trim cars, but these will not affect whether the rack itself works. Focus on matching the generation and engine size, and confirm with the breaker against your registration.
This question sits right at the generation boundary: 2016 is the final year of the first-generation 5008, while 2017 marks the launch of the second-generation model on a new platform, so on paper these are different racks. Even if a 2017 car you own is an early example, it is almost certainly the new generation, but you must confirm with the breaker against your registration before assuming any compatibility.
It can matter, because the steering assistance calibration and rack specification on the 5008 can differ between engine families, especially where one engine produces significantly more torque. Give your registration and engine code to the breaker so they can verify the rack is from a suitably matched donor vehicle rather than simply any 5008 of the right generation.
