To replace the fuel filter in an Opel Vivaro, open the bonnet and locate the filter, positioned in the engine bay. Place a cloth or small container under the filter to catch any fuel that may spill. Disconnect the fuel pipes and the sensor connector, if present, then undo or unclip the support holding the filter in place.

Remove the old filter and install the new one, ensuring the flow direction matches the arrow on the body of the replacement. Reconnect the pipes, the electrical connector, and secure the filter back to its support.

Finally, prime the fuel system using the manual pump, if available, or follow the procedure specified for the installed engine, then start the engine and check for any fuel leaks.
