High Pressure Fuel Pumps

[French Letter]

Mine spat the dummy at 38,000 kilometres. (approx 24,000 miles)

I think, besides the checks mentioned below, that the fuel filter needs changing more often. The Oz Pug RCZ service booklet states fuel filter changes every 30,000 kilometres (18,700 miles).

I run the 3rd pump on my R since new. They tend to fail latest after 80.000 km. No matter what I do in regards of maintenance or the fuel I use.

Unless the R is different, I'm sure the fuel filter on the petrol engines are non user serviceable.

I think they're part of the in tank gubbins.

Didn't someone on here change his fuel filter in the tank, can't remember who but I definitely remember reading it.

True in some, probably most, but Oz RCZ's came fitted with an in-line filter as well. Sits (attached to the under body), in front of the rear right wheel.

This is the part number I was given by Peugeot Service Box for my VIN.

More Oz difference. Maybe Peugeot was worried about the crap fuel found in the Outback. I really don't think any RCZ's even ventured into the Outback.
i.e. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outback

Also my Pug 207cc Sport THP150, has the in-line external fuel filter as well. Same part actually.

Regarding HP pumps, there is an updated version available.

Guess they’re trying to improve the reliability of them.

Don’t think they could make them much worse :shock:
