Mine also doesn't go upper that 4 when i press the gas pedal suddenly. Is it a symptom of bad fuel filter?

Thanks for the good explanation made it so much easier, clear & precise

did mine today. took me about 2 hours cause it was the first one i ever did. my tips that arent in this video are: i ended up removing the air box and engine cover because i have big hands and it made it a lot easier. I did remove the two nuts that this video said not too because i did not have enough room to even get a quater inch ratchet on the cage tension nut. That nut is a nightmare to get on with only 1 click movement of the rachet. i found a 3 quater long reach rachet easiest to get in on it. problem is you cannot see the nut if u use a shorter rachet because your hand is in the way. Also, i had to remove the nut on the bottom left hand side of the cage so that i could pull it forward a little as the filter hits the underneath of the car (its too long to remove in situ). Another thing i noticed is that the bleeder nut is lower than the pipes which mean some air may still be in the top half of the filter. so whilst pushing the pipe on (left hand side) i pumped the bulb and let it spurt a bit to ensure all the air was out. Started first click no problems good luck

Very handy, thanks.

Great video. Does not start straight away as think i still have air in new "Mann" filter..from not bleeding i properly but its hella betta than what it was. Many thanks...My handbrake constantly "on" is my next job...

Can I ask what is the brand of your replacement? Very informative video, thanks very much.

thanks. what year car is this? mines a 2004.

Hi Sebastian, Video is very helpful, thanks. I have bought myself a new Filter for my 2007, as I am hoping after I have changed it, I will not struggle to start it... whats happening is, when I start the car, it sounds like its starving and not getting enough fuel, it happens on a cold start as well as a hot start, I was advised by a RAC tech, that this should be my first check. Can I ask... after removing the engine head cover, did you remove the air box, as I cannot see how I can get the filter out otherwise?

remove the air box mate it takes 2 minutes and makes access a lot eaiser.

ye, now try >2006 one :)

i had to unscrew those too and even more otherwise i didnt had access to screw and then fuel filter woudnt come out

You appear to have your bleed bolt on top of the filter on the bulkheadside not the engine side.i just changed mine and the old filter had tje bleed bolt facing the engine side so thats how i re fitted it.my question is this,does it matter at all

The official filter shows the direction of the flow of the fuel with arrows embossed in the metal canister, the 'in' arrow should be the one that comes from the hand pump.

WHY OH WHY can't people who make these videos tell you what year the sodding car is
