Drivers side fromt wheel well. It's on the rear inside corner of the well. You'll have to remove the plastic wheel well cover.

bobnuttall1,

Just a suggestion: Leave the mounting bracket done up and slacken both top and bottom nuts of the filter a 1/4 turn before removing either one of them. Otherwise, if one is seized and you remove the other end, or remove the bracket nuts, it can be a complete pain to undo the seized filter end. I know this!!

Whilst it's apart, it's a good opportunity to paint the mount bracket and clean any corrosion of the pipes where they turn at the bottom.

Remember that when you change the filter, you should remove the fuel pump relay in the right front side of the boot, then turn the starter for a few seconds to release fuel pressure, then remove the filter.

Good luck

Paul
