Warning! Before performing the operation, be sure to read the section «Safety measures for the maintenance and repair of the engine management system».
The fuel filter is installed under the bottom of the car on the left side of the fuel tank.
To perform the work, an inspection ditch or overpass is required.
Execution sequence
1. We prepare the car for work (see «Preparing the car for maintenance and repair»).
2. Relieve pressure in the fuel line (see «Fuel Line - Pressure Relief»).
3. Using pliers with narrow jaws, we squeeze the clamps and disconnect the fuel supply line from the filter fitting.
4. Similarly, disconnect the fuel outlet from the filter.
5. Using the TORX T20 wrench, unscrew the clamp bolt and remove the fuel filter.
6. With a thin slotted screwdriver, we bend the two latches and remove the holders from both fittings of the fuel filter.
7. Install the parts in reverse order. The direction of fuel flow through the filter is indicated on its body. This must be taken into account during installation.
