Video tutorial

In this video, you can see how to change the diesel filter on a Renault Megane III: first, remove the right front wheel arch liner, and right behind it, you will find the diesel filter. Disconnect the electrical connector and the metal clips that allow the component to come out of its housing.

Important warning! The YouTuber is just showing how to do it; it is equally clear that to perform this operation, you must turn off the vehicle and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery (keep the radio code handy). Once the filter is out of its housing, you will need to remove the screw underneath, and only then can you take off the top cap with the seals.

After reassembling, operate the pump from the bonnet to prime the diesel filter.
