Fiat Grande Punto Fuel Tank Replacement Parts

The Fiat Grande Punto ran from 2005 to 2011 in the UK, with a facelift arriving in 2009 that brought styling and some trim updates. For a mechanical part like a fuel tank, the facelift year is less critical than your engine code and fuel type, but it is worth noting as a reference point when talking to a breaker. Always quote your registration and engine code when requesting a quote.

The 2010 car sits in the post-2009 facelift period, while a 2007 donor is pre-facelift, and although both are Grande Puntos, whether the tank crosses that boundary without modification is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration. The most useful detail you can supply is the engine code from your V5 or a VIN check, alongside your fuel type — petrol or diesel — as these are the primary fitment drivers. A breaker can then check whether the part number matches before you commit.

Yes, fuel type is a fundamental fitment factor — petrol and diesel tanks are not interchangeable, as they differ in filler neck design, sender unit configuration, and sometimes overall shape. Always make clear to the breaker whether your car is petrol or diesel, and include the engine code from your V5 to make the match as accurate as possible. Never assume a tank from the other fuel type will fit, even if the exterior of the car looks identical.

Trim level does not affect fuel tank fitment on the Grande Punto — Active, Dynamic, Sporting, and GP variants all use the same tank for a given engine and fuel type. What may differ between trim levels is cosmetic items like badging or interior finish, none of which are relevant to a tank swap. Focus on matching engine code and fuel type, and your trim level is not something you need to mention to the breaker for this part.

The engine code matters above all else for mechanical parts like fuel tanks, and for the 1.3 Multijet family there were variants produced over the Grande Punto's 2005–2011 lifespan, so quoting the exact code from your V5 gives the breaker the best chance of finding a confirmed match. Ancillary details such as sender unit connections or mounting bracket positions can vary mid-production, so confirm these specifics with the breaker against your registration rather than assuming any 1.3 Multijet tank will drop straight in. Getting the engine code right at the start saves time and avoids a wasted journey.

Body style — 3-door or 5-door — does not affect fuel tank fitment, as the tank sits under the car and is determined by engine code, fuel type, and model year rather than how many doors the car has. You can safely disregard body style when searching and focus on matching those mechanical details instead. Confirm the final part match with the breaker against your registration before purchasing.
