The 2024 Peugeot 3008 diesel automatic will typically be a BlueHDi engine paired with Peugeot’s 8‑speed automatic; the powertrain is tuned for efficiency on longer runs. It has a DPF and AdBlue system, so the car prefers regular motorway drives to avoid DPF/EGR clogging, and automatic gearbox software/servicing history is worth checking. A 2024 car may still have some manufacturer warranty left (Peugeot often provides multi‑year cover), so check remaining warranty and any recall or software updates.

• DPF behaviour and regeneration history — look for frequent regeneration messages, excessive soot/black smoke or a DPF warning lamp after short trips
• AdBlue consumption and injector/pipe condition — check records for regular top-ups and any fault codes
• Automatic gearbox feel and service history — cold shifts, no hesitation or harsh downshifts, and any software/recall work recorded
• Turbo/EGR response — check for delayed boost, whistle under acceleration or roughness that can indicate carbon build-up
• Rear seat ISOFIX anchors and boot condition — check for interior wear and that the boot floor/cover is intact for family use
