Peugeot 3008 P84
The second-generation Peugeot 3008 (P84) is a five-door compact crossover SUV built from October 2016, offered with front- or all-wheel drive. The petrol range spans the turbocharged 1.2 (EB2DT) and a mild-hybrid 1.2 (EB2ADTS), with a 1.6 plug-in hybrid (EP6DT) Hybrid4 300 providing all-wheel drive. Diesels are the 1.5 BlueHDi (DV5RC) and the 2.0 BlueHDi (DW10FC).
On the Hybrid4 300 PHEV, request a high-voltage battery state-of-health reading rather than relying on the indicated electric-only range alone, and ask about the car's typical charging pattern, since electric range figures degrade with battery age and charging habits in ways a single test drive won't reveal. The petrol and diesel engines follow the wet-belt, EGR and turbo-oil-supply checks already documented for their families elsewhere in this contour.
To judge a specific 3008, first confirm whether it is petrol, mild-hybrid, PHEV or diesel, and whether it is front- or all-wheel drive, since the drivetrain determines what actually needs inspecting. Get a full fault-code read across all control units and keep the printout.

Pre-purchase checklist
- ☐This engine family (DV5RC, 1.5 BlueHDi) was the subject of an official Stellantis recall (campaign MXL for Peugeot, NY5 for Citroen/DS) covering vehicles built 2017-early 2023, for a 7mm camshaft timing chain that can weaken or fail; check by VIN whether campaign MXL/NY5 applies to this specific car and ask for documented proof the recall work (reinforced 8mm chain, fitted on new production from February 2023) has been completed rather than relying on the absence of a warning light
