Used Peugeot 306 Fuel Pump

The 306 ran in a single generation from 1993 to 2002, with a significant facelift in 1997, so a 1997 and a 1999 car are both post-facelift — but fitment depends far more on engine code and fuel type than on year alone. A petrol 306 uses an in-tank pump, while a diesel uses a high-pressure mechanical injection pump, and these are not interchangeable across fuel types. Confirm your engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check) and share it with the breaker, as ancillary changes can occur within a production run that affect compatibility.

No — the 306 HDi uses a common-rail or distributor-type injection pump matched to the DW10 engine family, while the older XUD diesel uses a different mechanically governed injection pump, and these are not interchangeable. The engine code is the definitive guide here, and mixing pump types between these very different diesel architectures will not work. Always give the breaker your exact engine code rather than just the fuel type so they can match the correct unit.

Trim level (LX, XR, XSi, Meridian, GTi-6, Rallye, and so on) does not affect fuel pump fitment — what matters is the engine code, fuel type, and gearbox type, not the badge on the boot. A GTi-6 runs the XU10J4RS engine and an XSi a different unit, so they would need pumps matched to their respective engine codes, not their trim names. Tell the breaker your engine code and they will identify the correct pump regardless of which trim your car is.

Body style does not determine fuel pump fitment on the 306 — the pump is dictated by the engine code and fuel type, not whether the car is a hatchback, saloon, estate, or cabriolet. A petrol cabriolet and a petrol hatchback sharing the same engine code would use the same pump specification. Focus on supplying the breaker with your engine code and registration for the most accurate match.

The 306 facelift arrived in 1997, bringing some engineering changes alongside the revised styling, so a 1995 pre-facelift and a 2000 post-facelift car may or may not share compatible pumps depending on whether the engine code changed between those two cars. Where the engine code is identical across that 1997 boundary there is a reasonable chance of compatibility, but ancillary and mounting changes mid-production are something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume. Give the breaker both the engine code from your V5 and your registration number so they can check their unit against yours before purchase.
