    Once fuel filter replaced make sure you don’t start the car first time. You need to switch the ignition on wait few seconds and off, repeat this procedure 3/4 times so the fuel filter can fill up.

      @@TajMotorMedics Hi Taj, thanks for the video! I've got to change one of these asap but only have access to a wrench rather than a full ratchet, do you think that'll work just the same? Also am I getting you right at the start, I need to unscrew the smaller part first to drain the remaining fuel in the filter? :)

      @@grimhasty3597 hi you’re welcome! You can use a wrench but you gotta be very careful as you don’t wanna damage the plastic housing and also you don’t have to take the smaller part out first it’s just if you do then there is less chance of you getting messy 😁

    Thanks for the explanation Taj. Just a quick question from me. I added petrol £20 to my diesel Mokka, was on reserve when added. Though hasn't been started, only recovered to my drive way. Bills from AA and local garage was too high. I watched online videos how to drain the fuel, but can't locate where to get the fuel tank opened, as I feel it is under the back seat. Your advice will be valuable please.
    Thank you

      Hi thank you 😊 it’s usually under passenger rear seat but if I was you I would use a pipe feed it through where you fill from and then suck it out with a suction tool..

      Hi you don’t need to disconnect the battery just make sure the ignition isn’t ON.. and with the fuel pipe you don’t need to remove it unless it’s very tight then you might have to. If you are doing this on the road side please do take extra care. Thanks 🙏

      Sorry to hear you having problem starting your car! If you’ve replaced the fuel and did all of the above and not starting so you only have one option spray some easy start into the air filter pipe and start the car but don’t over do it as it could be dangerous for the engine. Two people needed for doing this.

      Taj I went and tried again, this time the filter came out with the housing, I’m guessing it wasn’t fully clipped in and by retightening it it clipped back in. I changed both seals and re primed the filter all done with no leaks and nothing showing on dash, guess I was too frightened of it but your expert advice inspired me and I thank you very much for that it is very much appreciated.
