Choosing the right used Mazda 6 fuel tank
Used fuel tanks vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
- State whether it's petrol, diesel or hybrid
- State if it's 2WD or 4WD

Fitment questions
What years does a Mazda 6 fuel tank fit across generations?
The Mazda 6 ran across three main generations in the UK: the first generation (GG/GY) from 2002 to 2007, the second generation (GH) from 2007 to 2012, and the third generation (GJ) from 2012 onwards with a facelift in 2015. Fuel tanks are generation-specific, so a tank from a first-gen car will not cross over to a second-gen or third-gen without significant issues. Always match the part to the correct generation and confirm with the breaker against your registration.
Will a Mazda 6 fuel tank from a 2011 car fit my 2013 car?
This spans the GH-to-GJ generation boundary (2007–2012 into 2012 onwards), which is a significant change in platform and body structure, making a straight swap very unlikely. Name that boundary clearly to any breaker you contact and ask them to check specifically whether a tank from a 2011 GH fits your 2013 GJ against your registration. Do not assume cross-generation compatibility here.
Does the fuel type — petrol or diesel — affect which Mazda 6 fuel tank I need?
Yes, fuel type is an important factor: diesel and petrol variants can have differences in tank design, filler neck configuration, and fuel pump sender unit setup, even within the same generation. Always confirm whether the donor vehicle was petrol or diesel and match it to your own fuel type. Confirm the exact compatibility with the breaker against your registration before purchasing.
Does my Mazda 6 trim level — SE, Sport, or Exclusive — affect which fuel tank I need?
Trim level does not affect fuel tank fitment on the Mazda 6 — the tank is determined by the generation, engine code, and fuel type, not whether the car is an SE, Sport, or Exclusive. You may find minor ancillary differences such as sender unit connectors or mounting bracket variants, so confirm any such details with the breaker against your registration. Cosmetic trim differences between these grades are irrelevant to the tank itself.
What is the most important detail to give a breaker when sourcing a Mazda 6 fuel tank?
The engine code is the single most useful piece of information — it confirms the exact variant and generation more reliably than the year or trim badge alone. You can find the engine code on your V5C registration document or by running a VIN check. Supply this alongside your fuel type and registration to the breaker so they can accurately match the part.
Will a Mazda 6 fuel tank from before the 2015 facelift fit a post-facelift GJ car?
The 2015 facelift updated the third-generation GJ Mazda 6 but kept the same underlying platform, so a tank from a pre-facelift GJ (2012–2015) may physically fit a post-facelift GJ (2015 onwards) in many cases. However, ancillary and mounting changes can occur mid-production that are not always tied to obvious facelift dates, so whether a specific tank crosses that boundary cleanly is something you must confirm with the breaker against your registration. Matching engine codes between donor and recipient remains the safest starting point.
