Description
Spare Wheel Winch for Peugeot 307 and 308
This spare wheel winch is suitable for Peugeot 307 and Peugeot 308 models and is commonly referenced by OEM numbers 9663376077, 9648236680 and 673504. Ideal for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who service Stellantis group vehicles, the unit secures, lowers and raises the full-size or space-saver spare wheel from beneath the trunk area. Customers often search by part number, so listing the correct OEM codes ensures fast identification and fitment.
Function And Benefits
The winch assembly provides a compact and reliable mechanism to stow the spare wheel under the vehicle and to lower it when needed. Key benefits include:
- Direct fit for listed Peugeot 307 and 308 models—no permanent modification required.
- Simple mechanical operation with a winding drum, cable and anchoring bracket.
- Improved convenience compared with manual lifting or external carriers.
How The Part Fails And Typical Lifetime
Failure is most commonly caused by corrosion and water ingress that attack the cable, drum and fasteners. Common symptoms include a seized or stiff drum, frayed or snapped cable, and broken plastic guides or mounting points. Lifetime depends on climate and road salt exposure; in corrosive environments the mechanism can deteriorate faster, while vehicles in dry climates often retain serviceable winches much longer. Regular inspection and lubrication can extend service life.
Replacement Procedure (High-Level)
Replacing the spare wheel winch is straightforward for a trained mechanic and feasible for competent DIYers with basic tools. General steps:
- Lower the spare wheel to relieve tension on the cable and access the mounting area.
- Remove any trunk trim or underbody covers as required to reach the winch mounting bolts.
- Support the spare and unbolt the winch assembly from its bracket—retain hardware if reusing.
- Install the replacement winch, route and secure the cable, then tension and test operation by raising and lowering the spare wheel several times.
- Check for smooth operation, secure fasteners and reassemble trim panels.
Use penetrating lubricant on corroded bolts and replace severely corroded fasteners. If the cable shows signs of fraying, replace the entire assembly rather than attempting field repairs.
Installation Recommendations
- Perform work on a level surface with the vehicle secured. Wear appropriate PPE.
- Inspect mounting points and replace rusty or damaged bolts to ensure safe retention of the spare wheel.
- Lubricate moving parts with corrosion-inhibiting grease after installation to improve longevity.
- Verify correct routing and tension of the cable; a loose cable can lead to improper stowage or noise.
