Peugeot 5008 VIN Check & Decoder

The 5008 is Peugeot's seven-seat family car. The first generation (2009–2017) was a compact MPV, the second, launched in 2017, became a seven-seat SUV closely related to the 3008, and the third generation, launched in 2024, added an electric version. Family cars lead busy lives, so a VIN check on a used 5008 is a good way to confirm the accident, ownership, mileage, and recall history before you buy.

Most 5008 VINs start with VF3, Peugeot's manufacturer code. Decoding the VIN confirms whether you're looking at the first-generation MPV or the later SUV, along with the engine, which determines which of the checks below apply.

Common Issues to Check For on a Used Peugeot 5008

The 5008 shares its engines with the 3008, and family use brings a few extra things to check:

  • PureTech Timing Belt: The 1.2 PureTech in second-generation cars has an oil-bathed timing belt that can degrade prematurely — check belt replacement records and the oil grade used
  • Prince Engines (First Generation): The 1.6 VTi and THP petrol engines are known for timing-chain stretch, carbon build-up, and oil consumption — listen for rattles on a cold start
  • AdBlue System on BlueHDi Diesels: AdBlue tank, pump, or heater faults can trigger warnings and eventually prevent restarting — ask whether the system has been repaired
  • Third-Row Seats and Interior Wear: Check that the third-row seats are present and fold properly — on the second generation they can be removed individually — and look for wear from family use

To decode each character of the number, use our free VIN decoder, and for the full history run a VIN check. Family cars often cover big distances, so read our guide on high-mileage cars. The five-seat sibling is the Peugeot 3008, and for a van-based seven-seater, see the Peugeot Rifter. Every model is listed on our Peugeot VIN check page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does every 5008 have seven seats?

Most do, but some first-generation 5008s were sold as five-seaters. On the second generation, the two third-row seats can be removed individually, so check that both are included with the car.

Is the 5008 the same as the 3008?

Since 2017 the 5008 has been closely related to the 3008, sharing its engines and much of its interior, but with a longer body and seven seats. The first-generation 5008 was a different type of car — a compact MPV.
