Default anyone know how to change the fuel filter and remove the fuel pump?

i heard its a 7 hour job B/C the filter is wedged between the top of the gas tank and the body, so it requires removing the whole tank. please say it isnt so

also, i can remove the fuel pump from the hatch in the trunk, right?

Default Yeap, unless you have a FrontTrak A4

then it's in the rear passenger tire wheel well.

Default I believe the A4 stock pump flows 110 liters/hour...should be plenty for your kit, no?

or is yours failing?
