looking to tune up a 2.5 2010 new beetle and saw that there are multiple filters with different connections listed as compatible parts online, but this is crazy! why are they selling this part if there's no practical way to install it?

Where does the 3rd line go?

You didn’t use submersible fuel line?

No, i tried to get the actual line from the VW Dealer but they said it is no longer offered.? So,i was pretty much in a bind so i used the Napa fuel line to shrink fit and i put a hose clamp on as extra precaution. I wouldn't do this repair again. I would buy the fuel tank with the assembly installed already and go that route, expensive, yes. But a heck alot easier that going the way i did in the video. The fuel tank port opening isn't very big and it's a major pia to get your hands in and be able to get at the filter,etc.

It was a shrink fit so after cutting the clamp is was the only way to removing the line. I went to the local VW dealer and asked the Lead tech how to remove the filter and he looked at me like i had 10 heads. So i was on my own. The way they must change it at the dealer is to replace the tank with the assembly already installed.?

@@CNC860 Im doing my 2010 VW Metal Tank both the filter and fuel pump... Fuel pump twists 45 Degrees and push off to the side and you can reach all 4 connections to remove the Fuel Pump or push it to the side to remove the filter clamp n ground. I took a photo of the connections and was waiting for you to correct the location of the main connections. 7 mill for the claim is the only tool needed after you remove cover. Super easy job... I bought the after market Filter and had to remove the GRN connector and install press it on the new one.
