Peugeot 2008 Peugeot 2008 II [2019-2021]
Quick response
Quick Answer: The most reliable VIN location for the Peugeot 2008 is the B-pillar manufacturer’s sticker/label. It is typically located low on the B-pillar in the front door jamb (visible with the front door open). Expert tip: this is the easiest, cleanest, highest-contrast VIN to scan.
This guide shows where to find the VIN (chassis number) on the Peugeot 2008 II, produced between 2019 and 2021, using the same spots inspectors check for verification.
Chassis Number Locations
1) B-Pillar Sticker (Manufacturer’s Label) 
- Where to look: Open the front door and locate the sticker low on the B-pillar/door jamb area. It includes the VIN, weight limits, and often the paint code.
- Access: Very low difficulty—usually clean, flat, and easy to photograph.
- Note: The videos are RHD, where this label appears on the left-hand B-pillar (front passenger door jamb). For LHD, check the left-hand side of the car first (driver side area), then the opposite jamb if needed.
- Tip: For the fastest, error-free read, scan it directly with your phone instead of typing the long VIN character-by-character.
2) Windshield VIN Plate (Visible VIN) 
- Where to look: Look through the windshield at the lower corner, where the VIN is displayed behind the glass.
- Access: Easy to see from outside, but the glass can be reflective.
- Note: On the shown vehicle it’s on the passenger-side lower corner; some markets may place it on the opposite lower corner, so check both lower corners if you don’t spot it immediately.
- Tip: If glare or reflections hide characters, capture it with the ScanVin.app camera at a slight angle so the app can grab the VIN without you transcribing it.
3) Engine Bay (Stamped Chassis Number) 
- Where to look: Open the hood and go to the right-hand side inner fender / suspension turret. The VIN is stamped into the metal near the coolant expansion tank and the windshield washer filler neck.
- Access: Generally easy access, but the stamping can be harder to read if it’s dusty, painted, or in harsh sunlight/shadow.
- Note: Both videos show RHD and still find it on the right-hand side of the car—for LHD, start on the right-hand inner fender/suspension turret as well.
- Tip: If dirt, paint, or sun glare makes the stamp faint, wipe it and then use the app’s high-accuracy scan to pick out characters—use the VIN scanner here.

Common Problems & Troubleshooting
- Windshield glare/focus issues: Reflections on the glass and dot-matrix printing can make the VIN hard to read—change your viewing angle and avoid direct sun.
- Stamped VIN hard to read: Dirt/oxidation or bright sunlight on painted metal can hide characters—scrub lightly with a rag and use better lighting.
- Sticker validity warning: A door-jamb sticker can be replaced; for a proper identity check, always compare the sticker VIN with the windshield VIN and the stamped chassis VIN.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the VIN on Peugeot 2008?
Check the B-pillar manufacturer label in the front door jamb first (easy to scan). You can also find a visible VIN plate at the lower corner of the windshield.
Which VIN location is the most important for Peugeot 2008?
For quick identification, the B-pillar sticker and windshield VIN are the fastest. For verification, the stamped chassis VIN in the engine bay is the most tamper-resistant and should match the other two.
Peugeot 2008 Peugeot 2008 I [2013-2018]
Quick response
Quick Answer: The most reliable VIN location for the Peugeot 2008 is the manufacturer VIN sticker on the B-pillar/door jamb. It’s typically on the front passenger-side door opening (LHD) on a silver/grey label with black text. Expert tip: if the label is scratched or fading, scan it instead of copying it by hand.
This guide covers the VIN number locations for the Peugeot 2008 I (2013–2018). Use these checks to confirm the VIN matches your documents before registration, insurance, or purchase.
Chassis Number Locations
B-Pillar / Door Jamb VIN Sticker
- Where to look: Open the front passenger door (LHD) and inspect the B-pillar (the post between the front and rear doors). Look for a silver/grey manufacturer data label placed low on the pillar area (sometimes near the door edge).
- Access: Easy access and usually well-lit. The main issue is wear—labels can peel, scratch, or fade.
- Note: The reference video is a RHD car, so this sticker may appear on the opposite side compared to your vehicle. For LHD, start on the front passenger-side door opening, then check the other side if needed.
- Tip: If the print is light or partially damaged, scan the sticker with your phone to let OCR capture the characters cleanly without guesswork.
Windshield / Dashboard VIN Plate (Visible Through Glass)
- Where to look: Stand outside the car and look through the windshield at the lower corner of the dashboard (commonly the passenger-side on LHD, but it can vary by market). You’re looking for a VIN plate visible through the glass.
- Access: Very quick to check, but reflections and windshield glare can make it hard to read. Dirt and leaves can also collect at the base of the glass.
- Note: On the video vehicle (RHD), the windshield VIN appears mirrored versus most LHD cars—check the opposite lower corner if you don’t see it immediately.
- Tip: If glare is hiding the digits, capture it instantly with the VIN scanner so you don’t misread characters like 8/B or 5/S.
Engine Bay (Stamped Chassis / VIN on Inner Wing Area)
- Where to look: Open the hood and inspect the inner wing / chassis leg area near the engine mount on the right-hand side of the vehicle (when seated inside, that’s the vehicle’s right; when facing the car from the front, it’s on your left). Look for a VIN stamped into the metal on a flat/raised section near the strut tower/chassis rail area.
- Access: Usually readable, but can be blocked by hoses/cable looms and hidden by shadows. It also collects grease/dirt, so you may need to wipe it clean.
- Note: Don’t confuse the engine number (stamped on the engine/transmission housing) with the VIN (stamped into the body/chassis metal).
- Tip: If it’s dirty or the stamp is faint, wipe it and then use High Contrast AI scanning to pull the characters out of greasy metal and shadows.

Common Problems & Troubleshooting
- Windshield glare/reflections: Change your viewing angle, shade the glass with your hand, or scan from inside/outside to reduce glare.
- Engine bay stamp is dirty or shadowed: Scrub the stamped area with a rag and use a flashlight—hoses and wiring often cast shadows over the stamp.
- Sticker doesn’t “prove” the car alone: A door jamb label can be replaced—always cross-check the windshield VIN + chassis stamp + paperwork for a match.
