Anyone know where the fuel filter is located. Does the battery need to be disconnected to change it? I bought a new filter to replace since mine is overdue, but can't seem to locate. I have a repair manual on the way, but I wan't to go ahead and swap it out.

Also, how do you move the front seat headrests up and down?

Thanks.

 

Not sure where the fuel filter is, but my headrests are power. The same switch that reclines the seat, it also moves up and down, which controls the head rest

 

Anyone, know where the fuel filter is located? What panels if any have to be removed to get to it. It is driving me nuts. This is the last thing I have to do to it.

Not sure if it's right, but found that on a quick search

 

I looked there and did not see it. That might be for pre 2004 models. Surely someone on this forum knows. Please help.

 

The fuel filter is under the left side of the body underpanel near the rocker panel, it must be removed for access.

 

Found it, replaced it. Easy job. Like you said right under the left side of the drivers seat. You really don't even have to get under the car to change it out as it is right there on the side facing outward easily accessable by just laying on your side. Took 20 minutes to change. Just carefull as you will get about a cup of fuel coming out when you loosen the nuts. also, loosen at least 3 of those hose holder bolts so that you can get the hoses loose enough to pull the filter.
