What Are Peugeot 408 Brake Calipers?
Brake calipers clamp the pads onto the disc to slow your Peugeot down — fronts do most of the work on a 208 or 2008, rears add stopping bite on the 3008 and 5008. SA summer heat, coastal salt and infrequent brake-fluid changes are the three things that kill them here.

Common Questions About Peugeot 408 Brake Calipers
How much does it cost to replace a Peugeot brake caliper?
Parts vary by model — 206/207 fronts are budget-friendly, while 3008 and 508 rears with electronic parking brakes cost significantly more. SA stockists include Modern Auto Parts for Ferodo units. Send your VIN for a free quote on the correct caliper.
What are the symptoms of a sticking brake caliper?
A pull to one side under braking, a burnt-pad smell, excess heat from one wheel and uneven pad wear are the telltales. Peugeot Forums has a long-running thread on rear caliper slide-pin seizure — this is the exact SA-climate failure we see weekly.
Can a Peugeot brake caliper be repaired or does it need replacing?
Many can be rebuilt with a seal kit and fresh piston if the bore is clean. Pitted pistons or corroded bores mean a full replacement. On 3008 and 508 with electronic parking brakes, we usually recommend a full replacement caliper — the motor and seals are not serviced separately.
Why does my Peugeot pull to one side when braking?
Most often a sticking caliper piston or seized slide pins — the bad side barely clamps and the good side pulls the car over. Contaminated brake fluid or a collapsed flexi hose cause the same symptom. Scan for ABS codes first to rule out sensor faults.
Where can I buy Peugeot brake calipers in South Africa?
We source new, used and reconditioned calipers nationally through SA stockists including AfricaBoyz. VIN-matching is essential because 208, 2008 and 3008 calipers differ by engine size and disc diameter. Send us your VIN for a same-day quote.
