REPLACING THE FUEL FILTER ON A FORD KUGA

Model: Ford Kuga C520, MK 2 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Diesel fuel filter

The fuel filter is located in the engine bay: to access it, first remove the plastic cover positioned above the engine by lifting it firmly but gently upwards. Unscrew the metal cover that covers the fuel filter and disconnect the fuel supply and return lines (place some rags to absorb any fuel spills). Unscrew the hex nut located on the head of the filter cover and remove the cartridge inside, replacing it with one of the same specifications. Once done, you can close and secure the filter cap, reconnect the fuel lines, replace the metal securing cover, and finally reposition the plastic engine cover.
