Locate the fuel filter under the Chevrolet Captiva/Vauxhall Antara. Next to the rear wheels, you will find the cartridges of two filters secured by a prominent plastic screw.

You can find the two replacement cartridges on any e-commerce platform for £28.50 per pair. When you open the screw, be careful as fuel will start to spill out, so prepare a suitable container to collect it. Once the fuel stops dripping, you can remove the filters and replace them with new ones.

Tighten the screw again and the job is complete.
