Has someone pinched my fuel filter

Post by pernix »

:cry: Following the suggestion to change the fuel filter on my 2.2 sri petrol estate (51 plate) i have bought a new fuel filter and went to fit it looked in front of the drivers side rear wheel and there are petrol pipes there but no filter, is it placed somewhere else?

406 estate, 2.1TD, I fixed her, then part exchanged her for a Mercedes E300TD Avantgarde Estate.

Some engines (2.0T for one) come with them as standard, and others only have them fitted on cars destined for dusty climates
