Here some pic to help with the job of a fuel filter change.

you weill need a T20 torx bit to remove cover screws, there are hidden under the sound proofing which is stuck down, the no nice way of getting it off I used a flat paint scraper to get the main layer off, then dug about for the screws, this picture shows black squares were the screws are located, so you may only have to lift some of the sound proofing.

Get some spray glue to stick it all back down with.

with cover off you can not see filter its out of sight, look down and towards the front. you will see a grey handle that retais the filter on to the top of the tank.

i have had a brief spin in it and it seems ok, need a bit of a run in it to confirm fuel accelerating abilities ha!
 
hmmm still the same :s

has improved it tho to be honest only did it once on a 50 mile round trip
 
no mate i have just tried a few simple fixes to see if it it cures it so far james. i doesnt do it very often so im not overly eager to start shelling out on garage costs right away as im saving for my australia trip in september.
