Description
Fuel filler neck housing for Peugeot 3008 first generation.
Original-style fuel filler neck housing designed for Peugeot 3008 (first generation). This replacement part restores correct alignment and sealing of the fuel filler, prevents fuel vapor leaks and ensures smooth refueling with standard fuel nozzles. Suitable for professional workshops and competent DIYers, the unit matches OE fitment and is often searched for by its part numbers 9682803280 and 1517E2 — ideal when speed and precision of identification are important.
The housing locates and secures the filler cap assembly, guides the pump nozzle, and supports the sealing gasket and vent connections. Installing a new housing eliminates common problems such as a loose fuel cap, persistent fuel odor, or difficulties when inserting the nozzle. Built to integrate with existing filler pipes and vent hoses on the 3008 first generation, it maintains factory routing and closure function.

Installation Recommendations
Replacement is straightforward for experienced mechanics but may require removing interior trim or the wheel-arch liner to access mounting screws and clips. General steps:
- Open the fuel filler cap to relieve any pressure and remove the cap assembly if necessary.
- Remove the inner trim or wheel-arch liner to reach the filler housing fasteners.
- Disconnect vent hoses and any retaining clips or screws securing the housing; label hoses if needed to ensure correct reconnection.
- Remove the faulty housing, fit the new housing with a fresh sealing gasket, and secure all fasteners evenly.
- Reconnect vent hoses, check hose routing to avoid kinks, and reassemble trims or liners.
- Perform a visual leak and odor check after refueling and verify that the fuel cap seats and locks correctly.
Work in a well-ventilated area, avoid open flames or sparks, and use suitable hand protection. Replace the sealing gasket whenever replacing the housing to ensure vapour-tight operation. If clips or screws are corroded, renew them to guarantee a secure fit.
Why This Part Most Often Fails
- Corrosion or rust on metal fixings and surrounding panels, often after exposure to road salt or fuel spillage.
- Impact or accident damage to the filler area causing misalignment or broken mounting points.
- Ageing and embrittlement of plastic components and seals due to prolonged exposure to fuel vapors and UV.
- Worn or damaged sealing gasket leading to fuel odor or evaporation losses.
- Blocked or degraded vent hoses/valves causing pressure issues that stress the filler assembly.
This fuel filler neck housing is a practical repair item to restore correct refueling function and eliminate fuel odor complaints on Peugeot 3008 I models. Search by OE numbers 9682803280 or 1517E2 for fast identification and correct ordering.
