We start by unscrewing the bolt of the bracket with an E11 key, loosen the clamps and remove the fuel pipes, remove the bracket, disconnect the electrical connector. Remove the old filter and replace it with a new one, insert the connector, put on the clamps, put the pipes in the rubber holders and tighten the clamps, install the bracket and tighten it, put back the cover.
