Does anybody know if the fuel filter is worth replacing and if so where are they located on the car?  There is very little information online that I can find.

 

Thanks.

Probably built in to the fuel pump assembly in the tank, and no, definitely not worth replacing.

Can check with VIN if you like.

Thanks Pete, seems a bit mad that it doesn't need replacing but maybe I'm from a bygone age!

I might be wrong, yours may pre-date the in-tank filter arrangement. VIN will get the answer.

 

Just PM'd you.

That brings up no results for a separate "fuel filter", when searching for that exact phrase for your VIN, just:

3Q0 919 051 Fuel delivery unit and sender for fuel gauge D >> - 05.12.2016

Yours was built 09/11/2015, so well within that date limit.

That's been superseded by 3Q0 919 051 AD, which at £372 plus VAT for genuine new would be one expensive filter change if it is inbuilt! (and you bought genuine from Skoda).

Cheers Pete, think I will pass on getting that done, but great to know.
