It says its for a DW10ATED which is for the HDi 110?

Mine is the HDi90 DW10AT?

Anyway, will this all work with my car? It has the "pre filter" on the current air filter...

If so, then all I need is some oil

The only doubt is the fuel filter.Look at the fuel filter lid, does it have the filter housing as in this picture? or does it have a big nut on the top of the filter housing? The filter in the kit you are looking at is for the type with the big nut in the middle of the housing lid, the one in the picture is one with a smaller hole in the centre of the filter.

Okay my ECU is bosch and the fuel filter housing is the type with the plastic nut on the top with the 2 hoses opposite sides.

The one you pictured is for Siems iirc with 3 pipe connection

That's good :D The one in the service kit is the correct one.

This filter is by far the easier to replace......remove the pipes at the top by pushing in the little plungers and gently pulling off the pipes, then put your socket and ratchet on the nut and unscrew the filter housing top about 90 degrees, gently lift off the top and take note of how the seal and the metal ring fit (the ring is a spring which presses down on the filter to seal it on the bottom), remove the ring and seal then the filter. After cleaning the inner housing, fit the new filter (take note how the seal fits in relation to the inner casing....the small hole fits at the top).Carefully fit the new seal and the metal ring, then refit the lid (be careful that it fits correctly, it's possible to think you have it square when you haven't...it will leak if it isn't square).Turn the nut 90 degrees.Refit the pipes, then get someone to turn on the ignition so that you can check for leaks, it will leak instanly if it isn't on square.
Turn on the ignition for a few seconds to fill up the housing then start it up...some people say turn ignition on and off a few times, I've never had to do that.

Job done.

Sorted, Thanks Jasper.


Do I just un-screw the bottom drain nut and let it all pour out into a container then?

Will wiping out the fuel filter housing with a clean rag with brake cleaner be ok?

Yes, that's exactly how I do these, drain out the filter housing from the drain screw, then clean with brake cleaner.
