Just a thin screwdriver will do the trick. But be gentle, there are plastic clips under the line. Don't wanna break them. And be sure to release the pressure fromt eh fuel system before you attempt this fix... Take the gas cap off for a minute or so. Fuel will spill when removing the filter, don't think this is a good backyard fix.

Where is the fuel filter located on the 2006 VW Jetta Diesel?

The 2006 fuel filter on the Jetta diesel is located in the engine bay passenger side at the front. It is a silver canister with 4 rubber lines coming into it. Five or six screws hold on the top of the canister and the top can be tied back until the filter is replaced. I did not take the lines off. The replacement filter couldn't be found at my local auto stores and 3 different ones are made for 2006 jetta diesel and is VIN # specific. The filter cost 39.00 at the volkswagon dealership. The filter slides over a 1" collar and was very hard to remove. I had to destroy the old one to get it out. The new one slides back on is also very tight. Hope this helps.

Just clamp off the lines on boh sides of the fuel filter so fuel doesn't go all over the place then remove the one bolt holding the fuel filter in place. Remove the fuel lines and put your new filter in place. Attach the fule lines, bolt the filter back in place and remove the clamps. I hope that helps.


How can you change ac filter on a 2003 VW Jetta?

It is located on the passenger side of the car. You access it by opening your hood. Standing in front of the car, you will see the plastic cowel that lines the bottom of your windshields. On the passenger side of that, you will see 3 or 4 Phillips screws. Remove them and pop out the plastic cover. Inside there is the housing for the filter. It takes a little finesse to get it in and out, but not hard at all.

Where is the fuel filter located on a 1990 Mercury Sable?

You will need to jack up the RR corner of the vehicle to reach it. The fuel filter is fastened with a big clamp to the right side frame rail, close to the fuel tank, just ahead of the RR wheel. Use a small flat screwdriver to remove the two plastic clips from the lines attached to the filter. Be careful, the lines are under pressure, and there will be fuel that will spray out as you unplug the lines from the filter. Use a flat screwdriver to loosen the clamo from the body of the filter and then you can remove and replace the filter. Install the new plastic line clips that are in the box with the filter into the lines and then plug the lines onto the filter until you hear them click in place.
