Fitment And Compatibility

Compatible with Peugeot 3008 First Generation models. Check the part numbers (9682803080, 1517G9) against your vehicle’s existing cover to confirm correct fitment. The part is intended as a direct exterior replacement and retains the original hinge and latch mounting pattern.

Installation Procedure

Replacement can be performed in a typical body shop or by a competent DIYer with basic tools:

• Open Fuel Door And Inspect Hinge/Latch: Confirm whether hinge pins, clips or screws secure the cover.
• Access Fixings: Depending on model year and inner wheel-arch trim, you may need to remove or lower an inner trim panel to reach screws/clips.
• Remove Fasteners: Unscrew or unclip the retaining hardware and carefully detach the old cover from the hinge or latch assembly.
• Transfer Hardware If Needed: If the original hinge, spring or locking insert must be reused, transfer these components to the new cover before final fitting.
• Fit New Cover: Mount the replacement, align to body gap, tighten fasteners and test operation of the flap and fuel cap access.
• Final Check: Close and open the fuel door several times to ensure smooth operation and correct alignment. Touch up any exposed screw heads if required.

Recommended Installation

Perform installation on a clean, dry vehicle. If the hinge or latch shows corrosion or play, replace those components or refurbish them before fitting the new cover to prevent premature wear. When painting adjustments are required, ensure the paint code (EPY / EPYD — Ruby Red) matches the vehicle. Reuse original clips only if they are undamaged; use OEM-quality fasteners for best results.

Why The Part Most Commonly Fails

Fuel filler cap covers rarely fail from normal wear; the most frequent causes of replacement are:

• Impact Damage: Minor collisions, shopping trolleys or door-to-door impacts that dent or crack the flap.
• Vandalism Or Forced Entry: Damage to the door or latch area from tampering.
• Corrosion And Wear: Hinges, mounting pins or springs can corrode or break over time, causing misalignment or inability to close.
• Paint Damage: Stone chips and environmental wear that make the cover visually unacceptable.

Installation Recommendations

• Prepare the vehicle on a flat, stable surface and protect surrounding panels from scratches with appropriate covers.
• Open the fuel flap and inspect the hinge and locking mechanism. Depending on version, remove the inner wheelarch liner or access panel to reach mounting screws or clips.
• Carefully remove any retaining clips or screws and disconnect the locking actuator or wiring if the fuel flap is fitted with a central locking mechanism.
• Fit the new cover, check alignment and gap, then secure fasteners. Reconnect the actuator/wiring and test the opening/closing and locking function before reassembling trim panels.
• If repainting is required, use the exact color code KWE (Pearl White) and follow standard paint preparation and curing procedures to achieve a factory-quality finish.
• Use appropriate trim tools to avoid damaging surrounding paint and plastic. If unsure, have the replacement performed by a professional body shop or experienced technician.

Why The Part Fails

Fuel filler cap covers most commonly need replacement due to external damage and wear. Typical causes include:

• Minor collisions or parking impacts that dent or crack the flap.
• Corrosion Around The Hinge Or Mounting Points, Especially In Regions With Road Salt.
• Paint Damage From Scrapes Or Stone Chips Leading To Rust Or Delamination.
• Broken Hinge Springs Or Clips From Age And Repeated Use.
• Failure Or Misalignment Of The Locking Actuator (If Equipped), Which Can Cause The Cover To Sit Incorrectly.

Practical Tips

• Always compare part numbers (9682803080 / 1517G9) and paint code (KWE) with the vehicle before installation to ensure correct match.
• When replacing only the outer cover, inspect the filler neck housing (stock code 1518E2) for hidden damage—replacing both items may be required after impacts.
• Keep photographic documentation of alignment before removal to simplify refitment and achieve correct gaps.

Function

The housing locates and supports the fuel filler neck and cap assembly, provides the sealing surface for the fuel cap, and routes venting/overflow lines. A correctly fitted housing prevents fuel smell and leakage, ensures safe refuelling, and keeps the filler flap and locking mechanism aligned.

How The Part Is Replaced

• Preparation: Work in a well-ventilated area, keep sparks and open flames away, and drain or ensure a low fuel level to reduce spillage risk.
• Access: Open the filler flap and remove the filler cap. Depending on vehicle trim, you may need to remove inner trim panels or access covers to reach mounting screws and hose connections.
• Detach: Remove screws/clips securing the housing to the body. Loosen hose clamps and disconnect vent and filler hoses from the housing. Note positions of any rubber seals or grommets for correct reassembly.
• Install: Fit new housing, replace any damaged seals or grommets, reconnect hoses and clamps, and secure screws/clips to manufacturer-specified engagement (avoid over-tightening plastic fasteners).
• Test: Check for correct fit of the filler cap, ensure vent hoses are reconnected and inspect for leaks after a brief refuelling or pressure test.

Recommended Installation

• Use New Seals: Always replace rubber seals or grommets during installation to ensure a reliable seal and prevent ingress of dirt or moisture.
• Check Hoses And Clamps: Inspect vent and filler hoses for cracks or hardening; replace if necessary. Use new or serviceable clamps to avoid leaks.
• Follow Torque And Retention Methods: When reusing metal screws or bolts, tighten to manufacturer recommendations; for plastic clips use the correct type to avoid damage.
• Verify Alignment: Ensure filler flap and locking mechanism align and operate smoothly after installation.

Why The Part Commonly Fails

Common failure modes include Corrosion Of Metal Connections (in regions with road salt), Plastic Fatigue Or Cracking From UV Exposure And Age, Broken Mounting Tabs Due To Impact Or Rough Use, And Degraded Seals That Cause Odor Or Minor Leaks. Failure Often Occurs Where The Housing Interfaces With Hoses Or Body Clips—plastic clips and rubber grommets are typical wear items. Regular inspection during service intervals helps spot early deterioration and prevents more extensive repairs.
