6 Most Common Peugeot 107 Problems

These are the faults most frequently seen on the Peugeot 107 by UK garages — ranked by how commonly they occur and what they cost to fix.

1
Head Gasket Failure (1.0 Petrol)

💷 Typical repair cost: £400–£800
2
Body Rust

Peugeot 107s are now old enough that rust is becoming a serious issue. Rear wheel arches, sills and door bottoms are the typical areas.
💷 Typical repair cost: Varies
3
DPF Issues (1.4 HDi)
Watch
The 1.4 HDi diesel 107 is rarely seen but those on short runs develop DPF blockages. A rare fault but serious when it occurs.
💷 Typical repair cost: £100–£800
4
Clutch Wear
Watch
City car clutches wear quickly in stop-start urban use. Slip and a high biting point are the symptoms.
💷 Typical repair cost: £300–£600

💷 Typical repair cost: £80–£200

Central Locking Issues

Peugeot 107 — MOT Tips

Inspect the body carefully for rust — rear arches and sills are common failure points and structural rust is an MOT fail. Check the head gasket carefully on the 1.0 petrol. Brakes can seize on lightly used examples.

Peugeot 107 Tyres

Most Peugeot 107 models run 155/65 R14 or 165/65 R14 depending on trim level and year. Always check the placard inside the driver's door for the exact size for your vehicle.

Summary

The 107 is a simple, cheap and economical city car. Rust is now the biggest risk on older examples — a thorough inspection of the bodywork is essential. Head gasket health on the 1.0 petrol is the key mechanical check.
