Urgent: HDi fuel filter cap - vlj - 19-03-2013

Apparently I don't know my own strength, or I'm working with cheese - I'll leave you to decide.
Anyway, plastic connector bit on the fuel filler cap snapped off and I need a replacement sent from someone today.. can't get to scrap yard or I'd pick one up from there..

Really common problem, especially in the cold!

Anyone? Really need this

Does anyone have the part number for this or know if the same part can be found on other models? I'm guessing maybe on a Berlingo or Partner hdi?

Ouch you have to be really careful when taking those pipes off, its always good to have a spare. Ive changed the filter loads of time on these and with a flat head screwdriver you can get these off really easy without putting any stress on it.

I learnt the hard way! Now that I'm paying Peugeot EIGHTY EIGHT f*cking POUNDS I am going to take considerably more care....

22mm socket to undo it, and two flat bladed screwdrivers to remove the pipes, gently lever it while pushing in the tab with the other screwdriver, that way it'll pop off as soon as you've released the tab and therefore you don't put too much stress on it.

As Jonny has just said, works every time.
