I hope someone can help with this one.
The fuel filter on my 306 Hdi vibrates and makes a loud buzzing noise.I hade the car 6 months before the noise started. The local pug dealers says its normal but it refused to make a noise for them. I dont see how it can be normal as its loud enough to require the radio to be turned up a couple of notches. Any suggestions most welcome as this is spoiling the enjoyment of a great car.

I think I know what you mean as I have also have a Xantia Hdi and it does make a quick purr every now and then (I think its the priming). The 306 noise is much louder and continues for ages and may stay on for the full journey, sometimes it even carries on for a short while after the ignition is switched off. Apart from the noise I am concerned that a pump or something may be operating when it shouldnt be.
The fuel filter housing is plastic and not very robust, do you know how to open the housing to fit a new filter. I dont want to break the housing although I may follow your suggestion and buy another one anyway, if its not mega expensive.[:)]
Hope this makes sense as I have just come back from the pub after testing a few pints of Boddingtons for quality.
