Fuel filter

[Trevor]

This is where I got mine from, with details of vehicles it covers

It also says :- Does NOT cover new 'B9' model range introduced during 2008

I assume the B9 is the Mk3?

The fuel filter in mine is one sealed unit. (Changed it this week.)
Is yours different?
Finally managed to check and it is a sealed unit. Question now is the Haynes manual states to drain every 12,000 miles, and to change at 36000 miles so do you split the difference and change at 24000 miles?, or is it advisable to change at 12000 miles? They seem to retail on the net for about 30 pounds.
