Hey guys i want to change my fuel filter in my R32 and was wondering if there were tips on doing it. Also when you change them does it matter if air gets in the system? Do you have to submerge a brand new filter in petrol before you put it on?

How do you guys go about putting em on.

Cheers.

firstly be careful! it's fuel remember...

i removed the fuel pump fuse then turned the ignition on (ie: turn the engine over a few times until it dies) to relieve the fuel system pressure. then removed old pump (have a container handy to catch any excess), put new filter on and then before starting the car just turn ignition to 'on' position and let the fuel pump do its thing whirring away for 10 seconds, then started my car. i didn't soak my new filter in fuel. I am not a mechanic though.

do a search for greater detail.

    • I would be lying if I said I wasn't interested in what MCM were going to do with the NC I really enjoy their banter and occasional collaborations (like Alan from TSF, Ben from BCW, or any of the Haltech guys throwing around their experience), and I have probably watched everything they have put out
    • Not yet, we basically drove it to a private road, got the logs and drove it straight back. I think I need a new passenger seat belt after the mrs squeezed the life out of it. 
    • Sounds insane! 🤤🤤🤤  Do you have any vids of it driving?  A flyby would be nice!
