Replacing the In Tank Fuel Filter
In-tank fuel filter replacement (also known as in line fuel filter replacement or diesel fuel filter replacement) can be a delicate process. Sometimes you won’t know that it hasn’t been installed / fitted correctly until you’re 500 meters down the road and the car conks out.
In extreme cases it isn’t unheard of for mechanics to charge for this job and not carry out it out. Alternatively a lack of confidence of some mechanics who have been requested to replace these may result in the customer being incorrectly informed that this service wasn’t needed.
Long term, not replacing the in-tank fuel replacement can result in shortening the life of the fuel pump. A blocked or restricted filter will cause the fuel pump to work harder and at higher pressure resulting in premature failure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Just like its name suggests, the fuel filter filters the fuel in your car of dirt and debris before it reaches the fuel injectors.
Some of the signs to watch out for are:
- Lack of power when accelerating
- Increased fuel consumption
- Engine warning light on
After inspecting the filter and relieving fuel pressure from the tank, the fuel filter is disconnected and removed and a new filter is fitted. After fitment, the vehicle is checked to ensure the filter is operating correctly.
