Where is the fuel filter located on the Ford S Max and how do you replace it?

Model: Ford S Max MK 1 - Years 2006-2016
Part: Fuel filter

The fuel filter on the Ford S Max is located inside the front hood of the vehicle, specifically near the fuel pump and engine. If necessary, the replacement of the filter can be done independently by removing the filter cap with a socket wrench until it is extracted. Insert the new filter and close the cap. On some Ford models, it may be necessary to disconnect the hose by removing the side metal clamps and disconnecting the filter and pump connectors. The filter can be purchased online on resale websites.
