How to Replace the Diesel Filter

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Diesel fuel filter

This tutorial explains the procedure for replacing the diesel filter on an Opel Corsa 1.3 CDTI. Before proceeding with the replacement, disconnect the inlet cable and the sensor. The latter is quite easy to disconnect: simply press the lever on the connection and pull it outwards. To extract the inlet cable, lift the blue lever located on the cable connection. After disconnecting the connections (and after collecting the purged diesel), manually unscrew the filter cap to remove it. After inserting a new filter, simply screw the cap back on and reconnect the previously disconnected connections.
