Intended Applications

Designed for use on Peugeot 407 Sedan models that require a replacement fuel filler cap/cover in KKQ Red Profond. Suitable for body repair shops, service garages and experienced DIY mechanics replacing a damaged fuel flap assembly.

Installation Recommendations

Recommended Steps: Remove the old fuel flap assembly by opening the filler door, removing the visible screws or plastic retainers, and releasing the hinge clips. Disconnect any retaining springs or the filler cap lock mechanism if present. Install the new assembly by aligning mounting points, snapping hinge clips into place and securing with the original or OEM-equivalent fasteners. Check the filler cap seal for proper compression and ensure the door closes flush with the surrounding body panel. Avoid overtightening fasteners to prevent cracking the plastic. If paint touch-up is required, mask surrounding panels to protect finish.

Common Failure Causes

Fuel filler covers typically fail due to external impact (minor collisions or parking scrapes), broken hinge pins or plastic clips, corrosion where metal components contact road salt, and wear of seals or latches from repeated use. Paint damage and fading are common on exposed flaps, especially on older vehicles. Replacement is usually required after physical damage or when the door no longer closes or seals correctly.

Practical Tips For Fitment

• Verify color code KKQ against the vehicle’s paint code to ensure a close match.
• Retain original fasteners where possible; replace damaged clips to ensure secure mounting.
• Inspect the filler neck seal and locking mechanism during replacement and renew if hardened or torn.
• Perform a final check with the fuel cap installed to ensure no rubbing or misalignment that could damage the paint.
