Window Motor Gearbox For Left Rear Window For PEUGEOT 308 T7 Driver-Side Rear Door
Product Overview
This replacement window motor gearbox drives the left rear (driver-side rear door) window regulator on Peugeot 308 T7 models. It’s an OEM-fit electric motor with gear reduction designed to restore smooth, reliable up-and-down movement of the window glass. The part is commonly searched for by OE numbers and fits vehicles that use the listed references. Ideal for professional workshops and DIY mechanics who need a direct-fit solution for a failing rear window motor.
Function And Typical Faults
The unit converts the electrical command from the window switch into rotational force through a gearbox, which then moves the regulator mechanism and the glass. Common failure modes include worn motor brushes or commutator, stripped or damaged reduction gears, water ingress and corrosion, seized bearings, or overload from a jammed window track. Symptoms of failure are slow or intermittent movement, grinding or clicking noises, complete loss of motion, or the window becoming stuck in one position.
How It’s Replaced
Replacement is straightforward for experienced technicians: remove the door trim and inner vapor barrier, secure the window glass in the up position (or support it), disconnect the electrical connector, unbolt the motor/regulator assembly, and withdraw the unit from the door. Install the new motor gearbox by reversing the steps, ensuring correct mesh and alignment of gears and regulator tracks, then test full travel and anti-pinch function (if equipped) before final reassembly.

Why This Part Most Often Fails
Failure Usually Results From Mechanical Wear (Brushes, Commutator, Gears), Water Ingress Causing Corrosion, Or Excessive Load Due To Misaligned Or Dirty Window Tracks. Frequent Stop-Start Use And Age Accelerate Wear—Especially On Rear Doors That Accumulate Moisture And Road Debris.
Practical Tips For Mechanics And DIYers
- When Replacing The Motor, Check The Regulator Cables/Tracks For Damage; Replacing Only The Motor May Not Fix A Mechanically Worn Regulator.
- Listen For Abnormal Noises During A Test Cycle — Grinding Sounds Indicate Gear Damage Or Foreign Objects In The Track.
- Keep The Door Interior Clean And Ensure The Moisture Barrier Is Intact To Extend The Service Life Of The Motor.
- Use The OE Numbers Above When Searching Or Ordering To Ensure Correct Fitment.
