Which Peugeot 207 engine oil?

peugeot 207 engine oilLooking for a suitable engine oil for the Peugeot 207? At the bottom of this page you will find an overview of all models and the corresponding oil. Always make sure that the oil you choose is suitable for your vehicle, given the year of manufacture of your Peugeot 207. In many cases, 5W-30 or 0W-30 is suitable, but to be sure, you can best look it up in your service booklet or via the table at the bottom of this page.

Measuring the oil level in Peugeot 207 (oil light on)

If the oil warning light (note: not the low oil pressure warning light) comes on in your Peugeot 207, drive straight to the nearest petrol station, garage or DIY store (albeit at low speed and revs). And buy a new and suitable engine oil.

  1. Make sure your car is not on a slope or hill.
  2. Then switch off the engine with the ignition key or the start button.
  3. Wait about 5 minutes before checking the oil level. This allows the engine oil to flow out of the engine and back into the oil sump.
  4. Now you can open the bonnet of the Peugeot 207.
  5. In the middle of the engine compartment you should see a pull-out dipstick.
  6. Pull the dipstick out of its holder.
  7. Clean it with a handkerchief.
  8. Then replace the cleaned oil dipstick in the holder.
  9. Now pull it out of the hole again.
  10. The oil film must be in the centre of the "Min" and "Max" marks.

Should this not be the case, it is always necessary to top up with engine oil suitable for the Peugeot 207.

Instructions for topping up engine oil on the Peugeot 207

  1. Buy the right oil for a Peugeot 207 of your type.
  2. Open the bonnet and check the oil level (see instructions above).
  3. Then carefully pour a small amount into the Peugeot 207 oil nozzle.
  4. Now wait a little before measuring the oil level again.
  5. Do not continue driving until the engine oil level returns to normal (indicated by the marks).

At your next Peugeot 207 inspection or an upcoming oil change, also test the oil level to make sure it is correct.
