What is OEM number 96761-541-80 and which part does it identify?

OEM number 96761-541-80 identifies the power steering pump for the Peugeot 508 I, covering both the saloon body (internal code 8D) and the estate body, sold as the 508 SW I (internal code 8E). The part fits vehicles built between November 2010 and December 2018 across a range of four-cylinder diesel and petrol engine variants. It is also referred to as a hydraulic power steering pump or servotronic pump in trade and workshop literature. Cross-references for this number include Peugeot/PSA catalogue numbers 4008J2, 4008J6, 4008J7, and 4008J8, as well as aftermarket and supplier references G5101675, J5101675, and A5101675.

Does OEM number 96761-541-80 fit my vehicle?

OEM number 96761-541-80 fits the Peugeot 508 I saloon (8D) and the Peugeot 508 SW I estate (8E), built between November 2010 and December 2018. Fitment spans multiple four-cylinder diesel and petrol engine variants across both body styles; the pump is shared across displacements from 1.6 litres to 2.2 litres within this generation.

This pump is a non-side-specific component — it is the single power steering pump for the vehicle and is not split into left-hand or right-hand variants. No KESSY (Keyless Entry Start Stop sYstem), software suffix, or drivetrain exclusion has been identified that restricts fitment within this generation. The pump listed here, OEM number 96761-541-80, is cross-referenced to PSA catalogue number 4008J2 and its close variants (4008J6, 4008J7, 4008J8), which together cover the full 8D and 8E production run.

When should OEM number 96761-541-80 be replaced?

Replacement triggers

• Steering wheel requires noticeably greater effort to turn, particularly at low speeds or when manoeuvring from a stationary position.
• Groaning, whining, or squealing noise from the pump or steering column that changes in pitch or volume with steering input.
• Power steering fluid visible leaking from pump body, high-pressure hose connections, or the reservoir return line.
• Steering that feels inconsistent — momentary loss of assistance followed by restoration — indicating intermittent pump pressure loss.
• Low fluid level in the power steering reservoir despite no visible external leak, suggesting internal seal wear.
• Dashboard warning light or message related to power steering assistance illuminated (where applicable on this generation).

Typical lifespan

The power steering pump on the Peugeot 508 I and 508 SW I typically lasts between 120,000 km and 200,000 km under normal driving conditions. Longevity is reduced by frequent low-speed urban use, sustained lock-to-lock manoeuvring, contaminated or infrequently changed power steering fluid, and worn drive-belt tension that causes the pump to labour under load.

Recommended related checks at replacement

When fitting a replacement pump, the following related components should be inspected:

• Power steering fluid reservoir — inspect for cracks, perished mounting points, and contamination of the fluid.
• High-pressure and return hoses — check for chafing, swelling, or weeping at crimped end fittings.
• Drive belt and tensioner — a worn belt or seized tensioner will accelerate wear of a new pump.
• Steering rack — check for play or leaks; a leaking rack may have drawn contaminated fluid through the circuit.
