Instructions for Replacing the Fuel Filter

Model: BMW Serie 5 E34 - Years 1988-1995
Part: Fuel filter

The fuel filter is located underneath the vehicle's floor; therefore, unscrew the clamps securing the fuel inlet and outlet hoses and slide them off. Next, unscrew the clamp securing the filter and remove it from its housing. Then, attach the clamp to the new filter and secure it to the vehicle's frame, ensuring you respect the direction of the fuel flow: there are arrows on the filter indicating the flow direction. Once the filter is positioned and secured, insert the hoses into their respective fittings and tighten the securing clamps carefully (consider whether it may be necessary to replace hoses and clamps).

How to Replace the Spark Plugs on a Kia Cee'd

First, release the bonnet using the appropriate lever to lift it and secure it with the prop rod. Then, remove the upper rear cover of the engine, where the tops of the spark plugs are located. Once the cover is removed, disconnect the connectors from the coils that feed the spark plugs at the bottom of the cylinder where the coils are housed. Using a socket spanner, unscrew the spark plugs and pull them out. If your socket is magnetised, it will help; otherwise, you will need to use long-nosed pliers, and you're done!
