Cheap Peugeot 508 Coil Pack

The 508 was sold with both petrol and diesel engines, and only the petrol variants use a coil pack — diesel engines use a different ignition system and have no coil pack at all. The most common 508 petrol engines are the 1.6 THP and 2.0 naturally aspirated units, and it is these you will find coil packs listed for. If your 508 is a diesel (HDi or BlueHDi), a coil pack is not the part you need — check with a breaker about your actual fault before ordering anything.

The 508 ran as a first generation from 2011 to 2018, with the second generation arriving in 2018 — these two generations used quite different engine families, so a coil pack from a Mk1 is very unlikely to suit a Mk2. The engine code is the critical detail here; even if two cars share a broadly similar displacement, different engine codes mean different ignition components. Always confirm compatibility with the breaker against your registration number before buying across that generation boundary.

Trim level makes no difference to coil pack fitment — the ignition system is determined entirely by the engine code, not whether the car is an Active, Allure, or GT. A coil pack from an entry-level 508 petrol can suit a range-topping GT petrol if the engine codes match. The only cosmetic difference you might encounter is minor ancillary dressing around the engine bay, but the coil pack itself is the same part.

Body style has no bearing on coil pack fitment whatsoever — the part is dictated by the engine, not the shape of the car. A coil pack from a 508 SW estate will suit a 508 saloon if they share the same engine code. Focus your search on matching the engine code rather than the body style.

The engine code is the single most important detail for getting the right coil pack — it tells you exactly which ignition components were fitted at the factory, and two engines of similar size can use completely different coil packs if the codes differ. You can find your engine code on your V5C logbook or by running a VIN check, and you should give this to the breaker when requesting a quote. Quoting just '1.6 petrol' is not enough, as the THP and older non-turbo 1.6 units are not the same and will use different parts.

The first-generation 508 received a facelift in 2014, refreshing the exterior and some interior details, but mechanical changes to the petrol engine family were more modest. Whether a coil pack crosses the 2014 facelift boundary without issue depends on whether Peugeot made any running changes to the engine at that point, which can vary by build date rather than model year. Confirm this with the breaker against your specific registration, as they can check the exact part numbers before you commit.
