Technical Information

• Manufacturer: Stellantis (Citroën/Peugeot)
• Model: Peugeot 307 CC I and II
• Product Codes: 9643084577, 1517A5
• Other Numbers: LKRD / LKR (color code reference), NFP (stock notation)

Function And Compatibility

The fuel filler cover protects the fuel filler neck and cap from dirt, water and minor impacts while providing a painted finish that matches the vehicle body. This unit is an exterior body part mounted on the rear quarter and is intended for Peugeot 307 CC models (convertible). Verify the paint code and product code to ensure a color match when replacing a painted cover.

How To Replace

• Open the fuel flap and remove any visible screws or retaining clips securing the inner trim or hinge.
• From inside the wheel arch or access panel, release the fasteners holding the filler cover (some models use clips, screws, or bolts).
• Disconnect any tether or illumination wiring if present, taking care not to stretch or damage the fuel cap tether.
• Fit the new cover into place, align the hinge and closing points, then secure with the original fasteners or OEM-equivalent hardware.
• Check opening/closing operation and paint alignment. If required, adjust hinge position before final tightening.

Installation Recommendations

• Use OEM specification fasteners or exact-fit replacements to maintain correct alignment and corrosion protection.
• Apply appropriate anti-seize or corrosion protection to metal fixings if the vehicle is used in salty or coastal environments.
• Lubricate hinge points with a light, weather-resistant grease to prevent squeaks and binding.
• Avoid overtightening plastic clips to prevent cracking; replace any damaged clips during installation.
• For painted covers, handle with soft gloves to avoid fingerprints and consider a final polish after installation to blend paint edges.

Why This Part Fails Most Often

Fuel filler covers commonly fail due to minor collisions or knocks (parking scrapes), rust and corrosion around fasteners or hinge points, broken plastic hinges or clips, and paint damage from fuel spillage or prolonged sun exposure causing fading and cracking. Replacing the cover is the most effective remedy when alignment or sealing is compromised.

Function And Application

The fuel filler flap cover protects the fuel cap and filler neck from dirt, moisture and minor impacts while serving as an exterior body panel that must match the vehicle paint. It is tailored for Peugeot 307 CC models (first and second generation) and aligns with factory mounting points to maintain correct sealing and closing action.

Replacement And Installation

1. Open The Fuel Flap And Inspect Fixings: Locate the hinge screws or retaining clips securing the flap to the body.
2. Remove Fasteners: Carefully remove hinge screws or release clips. Keep original fasteners if reusable or replace with identical hardware.
3. Disconnect Any Tether Or Lock Components: If the cap tether or locking mechanism is attached to the flap, disconnect it gently.
4. Fit The New Cover: Align the replacement flap with the hinge and body gap, then secure fasteners without overtightening to avoid deforming the flap.
5. Test Operation: Open and close several times to verify smooth movement, correct latch engagement and even panel gaps. Adjust hinge alignment if necessary.

Typical workshop time: 20–45 minutes, depending on access and whether trim removal is required. Recommended tools: set of screwdrivers/Torx bits, trim pry tools, small ratchet set and clip pliers.

Why This Part Most Commonly Fails

• Impact Damage: Minor collisions or parking knocks deform the flap or hinge.
• Hinge And Clip Wear: Plastic hinges and clips can become brittle with age and UV exposure, leading to loose or broken mounting points.
• Corrosion And Paint Degradation: Salt, moisture and stone chips cause corrosion or peeling paint, especially around the edges.
• Latch Malfunction: Dirt ingress or wear can prevent proper closing or locking.

Installation recommendations

Generally/typically replacing the tank cap/cover is a simple body work, but the exact procedure may vary depending on the car design and type of attachment.

1) Before assembly

• Compare the new and the original part: shape, attachment, possible guide elements and stops.
• Check paint shade and finish (scratches, scuffs, cracks, edge damage).
• Check the functional parts (typically hinge/joint, securing, possibly holder/cable – depending on design) whether they move smoothly and nothing is broken.

2) Necessary tools and materials

• A basic set of hand tools (typically screwdrivers / small ratchet tools depending on the attachment)
• Plastic pry bar for removing upholstery/covers (if access is needed from the inside)
• Cleaning agent and cloth for degreasing the contact surfaces

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Open the tank lid/cover area and prepare access to the attachment.
2. If access is required from the inside of the bodywork, gently pry open the relevant cover/upholstery (use a plastic pry bar).
3. Check how the original part is attached (screws/pins/latches – depending on the design) and document everything before disassembly.
4. Unfasten the original part and remove it carefully so as not to scratch the surrounding paintwork.
5. Clean the mating surfaces and the area around the hole where the part fits.
6. Attach the replacement part and verify correct seating in the hole and alignment with the bodywork.
7. Mount the part in the original mounts and fix it in the same way as the original.
8. Try opening/closing and locking repeatedly (without force).
9. Return any interior covers/upholstery to their original position.
10. Finally, clean the surface of the part and the surrounding area so that any unevenness or contact with the body can be seen.

• 4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification

  • Check that the part fits properly and does not rub anywhere.
  • Check that the cover stays firmly closed and does not open by itself.
  • After a short ride, recheck seating and any clearances (especially if the inner covers have been removed).

  5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them

  • Scratching the surrounding paint during disassembly: use a plastic pry bar and work slowly.
  • Poor fit due to dirt in the bearing surface: clean everything before assembly.
  • Overtightening of the fixings (if it is solved with screws): tighten with sensitivity so that the fasteners do not crack.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • Mechanical damage (impact, careless handling, leaning on an open cover).
  • Breaking of handles or cracking of plastic due to age and fatigue of the material.
  • Paint damage (abrasions, scratches) from dirt, brushes in the dishwasher or improper cleaning.
  • Deformation or clearance after previous unprofessional assembly/disassembly.
  • Loss of a part after poor securing or after an accident/service intervention.
