The OBD interface of the Peugeot 3008 is located in the fuse box position below the left side of the steering wheel. Open the decorative panel and pull it out directly. The black and green socket is the OBD interface. The OBD interface, also known as the computer interface, is an on-board diagnostic system that continuously monitors the operating conditions of the engine and the working status of the exhaust after-treatment system. Once a problem is detected, it records and stores the issue. During maintenance, technicians can quickly and accurately determine the nature and location of the fault based on the fault code prompts. The Peugeot 3008 is positioned as a compact SUV. In terms of power, the entire lineup is equipped with a 1.6T inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, delivering a maximum power of 123kW and a maximum torque of 245Nm.
I remember when I was driving the Peugeot 3008, it took me some effort to locate the OBD port. It's usually hidden behind a small panel below the steering wheel, right around the knee area. You can easily pop it open with a gentle pull – it's a black connector, somewhat concealed but becomes easy to find once you're familiar with it. I think it's designed there to facilitate connecting diagnostic tools during maintenance without interfering with driving. Before long trips, I always make it a habit to check the car's status using a Bluetooth OBD adapter to read fault codes. For instance, if there's an issue with the engine or emission system, it will light up a warning. It's safest to do this when the car is parked, never while driving. If you can't find it at first, don't worry – just use a flashlight to check the corners; it's definitely there. The more you familiarize yourself with your car, the easier it becomes to locate its components.
