Second Hand Peugeot Partner Rear Tailgate

The Partner has run in two main generations: the first-generation (B9 platform) ran from 2008 to 2018, with a facelift around 2012, and the second-generation (K9 platform) launched in 2018 onwards. Tailgates are not interchangeable between these two generations as the bodyshell is completely different. Always confirm the generation with the breaker using your registration number before ordering.

Both sit on the same B9 platform, but mid-generation pressing changes mean the tailgate shape and aperture may have been revised at the 2012 facelift. Name the boundary confidently – 2012 is when the facelift arrived – but whether the panels interchange across that point is something you must confirm with the breaker against your exact registration, as pressings can differ even within the same generation.

Yes, this matters significantly. The Partner was offered in both panel van and Combi (multi-seat) body styles, and the tailgate opening and glass arrangement can differ between them. Additionally, many van-bodied Partners came with barn doors rather than a single tailgate, so make sure you confirm your specific body style and door configuration with the breaker using your registration.

Trim level does not affect tailgate fitment – the generation, body style, and door configuration are what matter. However, you may find cosmetic differences such as the presence or absence of a rear wiper, rear wash-wipe mechanism, or trim finisher depending on the specification of the donor vehicle, so flag your trim to the breaker so they can match as closely as possible.

Both a 2015 and a 2010 Partner fall within the B9 first-generation range (2008–2018), but the 2012 facelift sits between those two years and may have brought pressing changes to the tailgate. The generation is the same, which is promising, but whether the specific panels interchange across the 2012 facelift boundary is something you need to confirm with the breaker against both registrations before buying.

The Partner and Berlingo share the same platform in both generations and are very closely related, so there is a reasonable chance of interchange, but whether specific panels are identical or differ in pressing detail between the two badge-engineered variants is something you must confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume.
