fuel filter change

Post by 5potblair » Fri May 18, 2007 10:23 am

I`m wondering if anybody has changed their fuel filter at kerbside motors? does the fuel tank have to be dropped to gain access?

Not done it myself, but it looks an easy enough job - no need to drop the fuel tank to gain access.

The fuel filter is easy to change on an S2 Coupe. The S2 Avant is a different story. You have to drop the tank to gain access to the filter.

Bare in mind that Audi petrol fuel filters are not considered a servicable item, so their placement isn't always in the best position to be so. That doesn't mean they shouldn't be serviced. I recently changed a fuel filter on a 50k mile S3, it was pretty much completely blocked.
