all located through the drop down flap in the undersheild at the rear of the sheild,(4 x phillips dzus fastners)
The fuel filter is a drain only annually and a replacement bi - annually..
remove clip-in lines, unscrew top housing collar and withdraw, change element and re-fit top housing and lines...turn ignition to get the dash lights on and let it sit there for about 30 seconds, this will prime and bleed the filter..start engine and it should run with no airlocks in the system..
As per your other thread a few weeks ago, I posted up a PDF all about changing the fuel filter.Originally Posted by trickydickySRI

Is there supposed to be a plastic tray like cover under the engine bay on the 3.2V6 engine as mine does, not have one, maybe they never fitted one from new, any one with a 3.3V6 have you got one under your engine....
this is actually useless unless the car is on a ramp. i had to remove the entire shield, around 8 or 9 torx screws, pain in the back side!Originally Posted by Gsi3.2

whereas the petrols, not having so much 'Knock' as the diesels don't need one.
Here's the procedure for removing the oil filter on a 1.9 120. You're gonna love it - it's a beaut!! It involves removing a wheel and disconnecting part of the steering knuckle!!!!

thats the one to remove the entire filter housing D ..i.e. the cast jobbie the filter sits in..
you trying to scare the poor ****** to death?? drain coolant to change the oil ..
