The VIN number of the Peugeot 408 is located at the lower left corner of the front windshield, the hinge pillar of the driver's door, the door lock pillar, and the engine compartment. Here is some relevant information about the Peugeot 408: 1. Introduction: The Peugeot 408 is a compact car equipped with DPCA's mainstream engines, offering two displacement options: 2.0L and 1.6L.

I've been driving a Peugeot 408 for many years, and the VIN location is quite common. It's mainly on the lower left corner of the dashboard on the driver's side, clearly visible from outside the windshield. Additionally, there's a VIN printed on the nameplate on the door pillar frame after opening the front left door. If you still can't find it, there's another stamped point on the inner side of the engine hood or the firewall in the engine compartment. The first time I looked for it, I spent some time wiping off dust to see it clearly, so I recommend cleaning it with a damp cloth. The VIN is the vehicle's ID card—all 17 digits can reveal the manufacturing year and original factory information. Verifying it when buying or transferring the car can help avoid accident vehicles or assembled cars, which is crucial for safety. During regular maintenance, just take a quick look to ensure it's not covered by dirt.
