Hi. Can anyone tell me how to go about changing the fuel filter. And would a main dealer one be recommended. The car is a 1992j reg. Also once this is changed would the car perform any better. Cheers
 
Having had a non genuine filter crack I would always go for the real thing. It is not an expensive part. Not sure about performance - probably depends on state of the old one.

Just had mine changed on a 300CE-24. An absolute revelation. All hesitation and misfire issues are now gone. Why didn't I get it done sooner?

I took the MB EPC entry for the fuel filter to my local 'garagiste'. Told her to get one of those from MB so she got the wrong one from Purflux! It had to be bodged into place but still works like a dream. Apparently the old one was very blocked and I'd overlooked it for too long.

I'll get the MB one installed before long.

Good luck.
