V reg 406 Estate.

Fuel pipe return going up under back seat to pump. This has been rubbing on
the bodywork quite happily for 6 years or so & finally broke through on our
170 mile journey to holiday. Nice one.  Caused huge hassle/upset/loss of
fuel. Obviously  could have been quite nasty. Luckily only leaked when pump
was running.

The pipe is reasonably well hidden, but belongs to a section that joins at
base of tank/return inlet/ carbon filter.

Peugeot dont stock it directly, but will sell a length of new hose & a pair
of clips for about £3

Check yours soon...

I had a fuel filter (under sill on rhs of car just behind front door) broken
by a stick and had the same problem - only I was about 50 km away from
petrol in the Oz bush.  A short length of ball point pen case of the correct
diameter (Luckily) and a bit of wire replaced the  filter - thank heavens
Peugeot put quick release hose clamps on either side of the filter.
