Known faults for Peugeot Peugeot 107
Our database tracks 3 specific mechanical faults and recurring failure patterns identified across UK MOT testing stations for this generation.
MOT Roadworthiness: Below Average

Common Problems: PEUGEOT 107
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Premature Clutch Wear on Urban Cars(Moderate)
The 1.0-litre 107 is predominantly used for urban commuting and first-time driver learning, placing immense strain on the lightweight clutch assembly. Pre-2009 models were manufactured with an undersized 180mm clutch friction plate that frequently wore out before 40,000 miles. Symptoms include a biting point at the very top of pedal travel, slipping in higher gears under moderate acceleration, and severe judder when moving off from a standstill. Peugeot later superseded the part with a sturdier 190mm clutch kit.
- Water Pump Bearing Seepage and Coolant Loss(Moderate)
The coolant water pump on the 1.0-litre 1KR-FE three-cylinder petrol engine has a limited working lifespan and commonly develops shaft seal leaks or bearing failure. If left undetected, coolant gradually drains from the system, leading to engine overheating and potential cylinder head gasket failure. Early detection is possible by looking for dried crusty pink coolant residue around the water pump pulley on the auxiliary belt drive side of the engine block.
