How to replace the diesel filter of the 2005 Citroen C3

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Diesel fuel filter

Today we will explain how to replace the diesel filter of the Citroen C3, model from 2005. To perform the replacement of the filter, we open the front hood and remove the ventilation tube, using a socket wrench that will allow us to unscrew the pins on the container. We disconnect the wires and tubes from the filter, then we extract the diesel filter holder and remove the worn filter. We insert the new filter and assemble the container, reconnect the tubes and tighten the screws on the box. We close the front hood and start the vehicle to test the filter's operation.
