fuel filter is located in aplastic housing at the front of the engine. open the drain screw on the front of the filter housing and allow the fuel to drain completely. disconnect the fuel lines from the top of the fuel filter housing by releasing the quick-release fittings using a small screwdriver. move them to one side, covering the ends of the fuel lines to prevent dirt entry. unscrew the top of the filter and lift the filter from the housing. refitting is reversal of removal.
the fuel PUMP (low pressure) is under the back right-hand seat and is replaceable by the careful amateur. As always surgical cleanliness should be adopted. Electrical connectors and fuel hose quick-release clips are relatively easy, but the fixing ring needs to be driven in and out gently and carefully - unless you have or make a suitable tool. My pump suffered an intermittent (not initially diagnosed) failure, and a few weeks later a total failure - which caused the engine to stop, and refuse to start.
you have to drop the fuel tank to change the pump have you tried banging the fuel tank sometimes that restarts the pump if your lucky

hi there can please show me the timing diagram to my 2003 peugeot 406 2ltr hdi
Mine's the TD not the HDI but the capacity is 70 litres, I think it's the same for all the engines.70 litres for my 406 HDi Rapier (2 litre/90bhp)
Fuel filter is inside the gas tank, it has to be dropped and the unit taken out. Sry but it is a real pain to do, I suggest you go to a shop for it.
