How to replace the diesel filter on a Mercedes C-Class W203

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Diesel fuel filter

In this video, we will see how to change the diesel filter on a Mercedes C-Class W203 version: we open the hood and remove the cover from the housing unit. We will find the diesel filter on the right side. We remove the supply and return pipes and then, using an Allen key, we remove the screws that secure the piece to the nearby structures. We remove the filter from its housing. In the meantime, we will have purchased a new filter, for example on E-Bay with the code 282416723081 at a price of 13.90 euros + 6.00 euros for delivery. We fill the filter with diesel and then put it back in place, reattaching the screws and reconnecting the supply and return pipes. We put the cover back on the housing unit. We start the car, which will need a couple of minutes to properly fill the filter and restart smoothly.
