What Are Peugeot 108 Crankshafts?
The crankshaft converts piston motion into rotation — it's the central rotating shaft of every Peugeot engine from the 1.2 PureTech to the 2.0 HDi. The crank sensor on the snout or bellhousing feeds rpm and position data to the ECU; without it the engine won't start.

Common Questions About Peugeot 108 Crankshafts
How much does it cost to replace a Peugeot crankshaft?
If you mean the shaft itself, this is a full engine-out rebuild — substantial. If you mean the crank sensor, SA retail runs roughly R65 to R550 (AfricaBoyz, AutoSupply, Boss Auto). The two jobs are worlds apart — confirm which you need before quoting.
What are the symptoms of a bad crankshaft sensor?
Engine cranks but refuses to start when hot, random stalling, intermittent misfires, and fault codes P0335 or P0336. 206 and 207 1.4 HDi are prone to wiring corrosion at the sensor plug. A cheap sensor swap usually resolves it.
Can I drive my Peugeot with a faulty crankshaft sensor?
Not reliably — the engine can die at any moment. The ECU needs crank position to fire injectors and ignition. A dying sensor causes hot-stall then restarts once it cools. Sort it before it strands you on the N1 in Joburg traffic.
How much does a Peugeot crankshaft sensor cost in South Africa?
SA retail pricing for crank sensors ranges roughly R65 to R550 depending on model and brand — confirmed through AfricaBoyz, AutoSupply, Boss Auto and SA Autoparts. Labour is usually under an hour. Send your VIN for the exact part.
What causes a Peugeot crankshaft to fail?
The crankshaft itself is extremely robust — failures are almost always downstream of oil starvation, overheating or a prior rod-bearing failure. If the crank is actually damaged, the engine has usually already expired. The crank sensor, by contrast, just ages and corrodes.
