Where is the VIN number in Peugeot Partner (Partner II [2017-2017])?

This guide covers the VIN (chassis number) locations for the Peugeot Partner (Partner II [2017-2017]) produced between 2017–2017, including the common “hidden” stamped body VIN in the engine bay.

Chassis Number Locations

1) Engine bay – right strut tower / inner wing (stamped into body)

• Where to look: Open the bonnet and go to the right-hand side suspension turret/strut top area. The VIN is stamped into the painted metal on the right inner wing/strut tower. On some trims it’s hidden behind a black felt/fabric sound-deadening cover—unclip or peel the top edge back to expose the stamping. On others, a wiring loom runs over the stamping, so pull the loom aside to read it.
• Access: Often awkward due to a felt pad or wiring, and the stamping can be dirty with engine grime. Use a torch, and scrub lightly (rag + mild degreaser) if the characters are packed with dirt.
• Note: “Right side” is the vehicle’s right (direction of travel). On LHD vehicles this is commonly the passenger-side strut tower; on RHD it’s commonly the driver-side strut tower.
• Tip: If the stamping is greasy, faint, or shadowed by wiring, use the app’s camera with a high-contrast capture to avoid misreading characters—scan the VIN directly with your phone instead of guessing dirty stampings.

2) Dashboard VIN plate (through the windshield)

• Where to look: From outside the vehicle, look through the lower corner of the windshield at the dashboard area for the VIN plate (standard visibility location).
• Access: Usually easy, but glare/reflections and tinted glass can make it hard to photograph cleanly.
• Note: Best viewed in even light (overcast) or with your body blocking reflections.
• Tip: If reflections are washing out the numbers, capture it quickly and cleanly—use the VIN scanner so you don’t transpose characters like 8/B or 5/S.

3) Door shut / B-pillar VIN label (sticker)

• Where to look: Check the door pillar/door shut area for a manufacturer label (commonly on the B-pillar; side can vary by market). Open the front door and inspect the pillar and the door edge area.
• Access: Easy—no tools—but labels can be scratched, faded, or peeled with age.
• Note: Use this label to cross-check, but rely on the stamped body VIN for the physical chassis identifier.
• Tip: If the print is faded or you’re reading it at an awkward angle, scan it with your phone to avoid writing down the wrong character.

Common Problems & Troubleshooting

• “I can’t see any VIN in the engine bay.” Check for a black felt/sound-deadening flap on the right inner wing/strut tower and peel/unclip it back—the stamping may be completely hidden.
• “The stamping is there but unreadable.” It’s commonly dirty/greasy—wipe, then scrub the grooves lightly so the characters pop; also move any wiring loom that sits across the digits.
• Sticker warning: Door-pillar labels can fade, peel, or be replaced—always confirm the VIN matches the windshield plate + the stamped body VIN before buying or ordering parts.
