Replacement of the diesel filter of the Volkswagen Golf 7

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Diesel fuel filter

To ensure a clean fuel flow, we periodically replace the diesel filter of the Volkswagen Golf. To carry out the replacement, we open the front hood, locate the filter on the passenger side, use a torx key to unscrew the five screws of the cover and move it aside. We carefully remove the old filter to avoid spilling too much fuel, let it drain well and remove it. We take the new filter element and insert it into the metal body, after checking for compatibility, we close the cover and tighten it by screwing the five screws in a cross pattern.
