Re: fuel filter
thanks for the reply mate, I had a quick look earlier and the only thing in that area seems to be the dryer can for the air-con so I'm going to spend a bit more time tomorrow. Thanks again

Re: fuel filter
I think Grosseberger is correct. I believe it is near the washer bottle and a bugger to get at. If you remove the o/s/f wheel and take off the plastic wheel arch liner you should see it on the right as you're looking into the wheel arch.

Re: fuel filter
It's located on the rear left side of the car under the fuel tank/next to the rear left tyre.Need to lift car up to be able to see it. ![Smile :-)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

It is integrated inside the fuel gauge in the fuel tank. Not necessary to change it.

There are certain models up to certain year of production that has fuel filter. Others don't. It's a Renault thing.

Re: fuel filter
ya correct....
esp FL ones.
the fuel pump has:
1. fuel strainer
2. fuel pressure regulator
3. fuel gauge sending unit
4. pump motor.
all these f(n) in one unit....strainer is the filter.
