Replacing the diesel filter on Opel Meriva

Model: Vauxhall Meriva MK 1, Meriva A - Years 2003-2010
Part: Diesel fuel filter

Raise the hood and secure it. Locate the diesel filter box which, if you are facing the vehicle, is located on your center left, towards the windscreen. Unscrew, using a socket wrench, the two bolts that secure the filter box cover. Lift the filter from its seat and disconnect the two inlet and outlet ducts, as shown in the video (first place some rags under the filter area). Drain the liquid left in the filter and open the compartment by unscrewing the upper screw with a torx t30 wrench. Replace the filter and proceed backwards for reassembly.

How to replace the gear knob on an Opel Astra? Follow these steps: use a plastic lever to disconnect the leather gaiter frame (if you need to replace it).
