Hi
Please can someone help me?
I had to be towed home today because the quick fir connector popped off and the car cut out! The breakdown guy couldn’t fix it because at some point in the Spacetourer buses life the clip has been damaged when someone has gone at it with a screw driver and today just happens to be the day it popped off!
Can this easily be repaired with a new connector or do I need to buy the entire fuel line?
Please see the images of what’s broken and thanks in advance

Re: Quick fit fuel connector
I noted that the same fuel filter was also supplied to Ford models.
Consequently a search for the fuel pipe clip in the Ford range was available and was the same as the ones used on the C5 X7 2013 and DS5 2014.
A similar search may get you the required clip and not the whole pipe if a search in the Citroen range appears to be unavailable.
Hope that helps.
Andy.

If it can happen it will.

Re: Quick fit fuel connector
A follow up the clips came from ADL Components advertising on Ebay UK
The part number 7L3Z-9S317A
From your photos they look the same as on the C5 X7 and DS 5 2.0L HDi
Good luck.

Re: Quick fit fuel connector
Probably worth having several of these on hand as they are all starting to break on the older cars. Wasn't aware you could just buy this small part cheaply! I see you can buy the whole plug too, but not sure what's involved to refit one.

Re: Quick fit fuel connector
So found a few options but they don’t seem to be the same size in pictures so ordered and waiting for them to come so I can check
Also found on on eBay that was £19

Re: Quick fit fuel connector
So the parts I bought worked all I did was remove the grey piece out of the holder on the new part and the white piece out of the old part and it all clipped together nicely…!
Thanks to all who commented and helped
