Then the engine stops picking up after 1500 rpm. If you really start the situation, the engine stalls at idle. This is because the pump cannot push fuel. This problem is especially evident on diesel engines, in late autumn.

  • crosshead screwdriver;
  • head “10”;
  • pliers, just in case;
  • It is advisable to wear gloves, and also lay down some rags or cardboard if you are replacing on the ground.

Replacing the fuel filter Volkswagen Passat B6

Every car requires replacing the fuel filter. This will ensure stable operation of its engine, purifying the gasoline entering it from unnecessary impurities and contaminants.

Although the operating instructions for the Volkswagen Passat B6 do not indicate the need to replace the filter that cleans the fuel, this procedure still needs to be carried out after 60 thousand kilometers. On diesel engines, the old filter is replaced with a new one more often, every 20 thousand kilometers.

Suitable filter element models:

Wix FiltersWF8127

The fuel filter is installed between the gas tank, closer to the carburetor. Before starting work, stock up on old rags or newspapers and a container into which you can drain the remaining fuel.

1. Under the hood, find a “glass” with 4 hoses connected to it.

2. The sump cover is fixed with 5 bolts; they should be unscrewed, after placing a rag under the part, which will collect the spilled fuel. Use a flat-head screwdriver to pry it at the intended location. We move the lid a little to the side so that it does not interfere with further work.

3. Remove the dirty filter from the glass. We immediately place a container under it into which the remaining fuel will drain.

4. Using a thin tube, pump everything out of the sump and wipe it dry with a rag so that nothing unnecessary remains in it. Pour 200 ml of fuel into the cleaned body.

5. Insert a new filter element in place of the old one and let it absorb the fuel. Afterwards, add clean fuel, leaving 1-2 cm to the edges of the “glass”.

6. It is imperative to change the o-ring on the sump cover. Remove it using a flathead screwdriver and put the new one on with some effort. This element comes complete with a fuel filter.

7 Reinstall the cover, securing it with 5 bolts.

After installing the filter, start the engine and check the results of your work. Pay attention to the tightness of all connections so that fuel does not leak anywhere.

Do not throw away used newspapers and rags; they must be disposed of in accordance with safety regulations when working with flammable materials.

To avoid frequent replacement of fuel filter consumables, try to use high-quality fuel by filling it at trusted gas stations. The stability of the functioning of your car’s engine and its serviceability depend on its cleanliness.

Signs of a clogged fuel filter

A clogged fuel filter causes a drop in pressure in the fuel rail, the fuel-air mixture becomes leaner, which can lead to destruction of the gas distribution elements of the cylinder head or connecting rod-piston group.

Increased filter resistance creates an abnormal load on the pump and accelerates its wear, which can cause the winding to overheat and fail.

It is not recommended to use a car with a clogged filter.

Symptoms of a clogged fuel filter:

  • Unstable idle;
  • Difficulties when starting the internal combustion engine, it does not start the first time;
  • Loss of motor power;
  • Jerks when accelerating;
  • Leaning of the fuel-air mixture.

Similar signs may indicate other malfunctions. If these indications are present, it is recommended to replace the fuel filter first.
