chief ka kar 0 Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Just done mines no probs, took fuel pump fuse out started the car. Just to clear the pressure then removeed pipes from fuel filter with a flat head screw and so gentle pulling. Then undo the housing remove filter then pop the new one in. Have a drip tray ready for some that comes out of the filter. Link to post Share on other sites
ian_GTI 0 Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 It located under the car rear o/sIts held in by a jubilee clip (there normally rusted solid (I normally replace mine at the same time as the filter) or just cable tie it if you have toThere is a clip each side you will see a tab on them just sweeze and pull and it will come offMake sure you have somthing to catch the small amount of fuel that will come outTake note of the arrow on the filter it needs to point towards the front of the carClip the new filter in place you will be able to feel the clip pop into place and just give it a small pull to make sure it's clipped in properlyReattach it to the carPut the keys into the ignition onto the 2nd click and you will hear the pump prim then when it stops start the car and check for leaksJob done should take about 10mins Link to post Share on other sites
