Gday All,

Done a service on the D3 today and it blew me away where the fuel filter is located.

To mount a fuel filter above a cross member and below the floor with about 15mm clearance is plain crazy.I wonder how much dirt gets into the filter whilst trying to install it, then gets thru the rest of the fuel system

I Wont be surprised to read of injecter problems on TDV6 D3's..

Anyway my bitch for the day.


Cheers Ean

Lol - changing the fuel pressure regulator on my D2 nearly killed me... My sympathies are with you :)

Did you have any issues priming the system after the filter change?

Gday Garry,

No as I always install fuel filters full of fuel.
