ABS rings for Peugeot 407
The Peugeot 407 was launched with an advanced chassis where safety systems such as ABS and ESP play a central role in the car's roadholding. The ABS ring, often called an ABS reluctor ring, is a small but critical component in this system that enables safe braking under challenging conditions. On a Peugeot 407, these rings are mounted on the CV joints and are exposed daily to moisture, road salt and grime. Over time, this can cause them to rust or crack, which directly impairs the vehicle's safety features. With us, you will find spare parts that meet or exceed original specifications for your car, guaranteeing long-lasting durability.
What does an ABS ring do on a Peugeot 407?
The ABS ring on your Peugeot 407 functions as part of a magnetic or mechanical pulse-sensor system. As the wheel turns, the ABS sensor reads the teeth or magnetic windows on the ring and relays that data to the car's control unit. This allows the system to determine if a wheel is about to lock up under heavy braking. For a car such as the Peugeot 407, which features sophisticated electronics, an intact and clean ABS ring is vital to allow the stability control and anti-lock brakes to communicate properly and intervene when necessary. Without a functioning ring, the system cannot regulate braking pressure individually at each wheel.
Common signs of wear
The most common sign of a failing ABS ring on your Peugeot 407 is an illuminated ABS warning light on the instrument cluster. Often the fault may be intermittent at first, especially in wet weather or after washing the car. Another distinct symptom is a pulsating or "juddering" brake pedal at lower speeds, just before the car comes to a complete halt, even on dry tarmac. This happens because a cracked ring sends erratic signals to the sensor, tricking the system into believing that the wheel has locked up. If you notice these symptoms, inspect the reluctor rings promptly to avoid increased stopping distances and compromised handling.
How to choose the correct ABS ring
Choosing the correct ABS ring for your Peugeot 407 requires care, as there are variations depending on engine size and chassis type. The most critical details to check are the tooth count on the ring, as well as its inner diameter and width. Because the Peugeot 407 uses different types of CV joints depending on whether it has a diesel or petrol engine, the ring specifications can vary. The most reliable way to find the right part is to select your car's make, model and engine in our shop. We have matched our products against specific vehicle data to minimise the risk of ordering the wrong part, saving you both time and money during the repair.
Related components to inspect
You can also check these exact pages for the same vehicle when working on the ABS ring:
When a drivetrain component shows signs of wear, neighbouring parts on the same car often require inspection as well. Comparing these exact pages for the Peugeot 407 makes it easier to determine whether the issue lies solely with the ABS ring or another adjoining part of the power transmission.
This is particularly relevant on models where vibrations, play and noises can shift symptoms across several parts in the same drivetrain. A quick check of related categories reduces the risk of replacing the correct component type while overlooking an adjacent part that affects the same fault.
By overhauling the entire drivetrain at the same time, you ensure a lasting repair and avoid having to dismantle the same assemblies multiple times in future.

Frequently asked questions about ABS rings for Peugeot 407 - Find the right reluctor ring for your car
How do I know if the ABS ring is broken on my Peugeot 407?
The most common symptoms are an illuminated ABS warning light or a pulsating brake pedal when braking at low speeds on dry tarmac.
Can I replace just the ABS ring, or does the entire CV joint need to be replaced?
On the Peugeot 407, you can usually replace just the ABS ring if the CV joint itself is otherwise in good condition and free from play.
Why do ABS rings crack on the Peugeot 407?
This is usually caused by corrosion building up underneath the ring on the CV joint. The expanding rust exerts pressure that eventually causes the ring to crack.
Does the same ABS ring fit all Peugeot 407 models?
No, the number of teeth and the diameter can vary depending on the engine variant and model year. Always select your vehicle make, model and engine to ensure the correct fit.
Do I need specialist tools to fit a new ABS reluctor ring?
No advanced specialist tools are required, but the mating surface on the CV joint must be thoroughly cleaned of rust before the new ring is pressed or heat-shrunk into place.
