Do I have a replaceable fuel filter?

Post by Drifter »

I have a 2006 Optra with the 1.6L/auto, Philippine model (not sure if it's made here or Korea). I've read on some (American models 2.0L) that the fuel filter is actually part of the pump and you have to change the whole fuel pump to change the filter. Does anyone know if the Asian models have a actual replaceable filter? Thanks for any help.

Just look for one... If you have one, you have one.

Check on the firewall or under the car near the fuel tank. If you have an inline filter it will be in one of those locations most likely.
