p38 fuel filter

[nervous]

any one know where it is? is it in the engine bay? if so, where? or maybe in the tank or something equally stupid? nothing would surprise me. its a 2002, 4.0l if thats relevant.

thanks in advance.

Memory is a bit hazy, but I think it's bolted on the chassis rail. (around the rh rear passenger area)

Nervy,
I have it on good authority that said fuel filter is under either driver or passenger seat (outside car obviously) and is renewable every 48k as per service schedule. Pick up the fuel lines and somewhere in line is a metal cannister.

If it's anything like my e39 one it hides behind a plastic cover and spits petrol everwhere when it's first undone.

awesome, thanks D
