Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How to remove and replace the diesel filter on Opel Astra

Let's see how to remove and replace the diesel filter present on Opel Astra: we lift the car on a column bridge or a special jack, we identify the diesel filter as in the video. With a fixed wrench we unscrew the pin that tightens (we can also use a socket wrench) placed near the container where the diesel filter is located. Once the filter has been removed, remove it from the car (replace it with a new filter). Finally we reassemble the filter to the attached container of the diesel filter (we connect pipes and cables) and tighten the appropriate pins. We close the front hood finally.
