C30 Engine : - C30 D4 diesel filter location???

Dervy · Mar 26th, 2018, 16:19

I'm not sure if I'm playing blind or stupid... But where is the diesel filter on my 2010 c30 d4 (5 cylinder)???

I've googled about and can't find much to do with the c30....

Just in front of the O/S rear-subframe, to remove you'll need a strap wrench, a couple of strips of coarse sandpaper, and some serious grunt!

I'll get the other end jacked up then! I read somewhere that the fuel tank should be less than 1/4 full when changing... Is this correct or just rubbish??

Found it and renewed it! It was actually behind the fuel tank pretty much central to the car oddly enough. Used my oil filter claws to undo it. Easy job!

Good stuff, as I said they can be mega tight!
I think it's less than half a tank full otherwise drainage takes ages - been there!
