When servicing your car, do not forget the fuel filter. Lift the car on a column lift and locate the fuel filter.

Disconnect the cables and various hoses from the filter (remove any bolts next to the filter if present). Once the filter is removed, take it out of the vehicle (replace it with a new filter).

Finally, refit the filter under the car's body (connect the hoses and cables) and tighten everything securely. Close the front bonnet after maintenance.

Test if the car runs perfectly (start the engine).
