Car Forum / Subaru Cars / September 2008Where is my Fuel Filter?
Hi All, On my 2006 Forrester, 4 CYL, where is my fuel filter located? Many thanks, -T On my 1998 & 2003 models it is R.H. side back corner of engine bay. A black cannister about 2.5 inches diameter & 6 inches high. Black rubber pipes running to the top of it. Hope this helps Regards > On my 1998 & 2003 models it is R.H. side back corner of engine bay.

Have you seen what a new one looks like? At the store or something? It might give you a clue as to what to look for under the hood, or back by the tank.

See http://www.subaruforester.org/vbulletin/f88/code-420-cant-find-fuel-filter-40918 /#post462522 They are also very difficult to buy. Thank you all for your suggestions. -T The in-tank filter is part of the fuel pump assembly and is not serviced separately. It does not have to be replaced at the same intervals as the older external filter. For information on service intervals see the service schedule in your owners manual or on the Subaru website. >It is in the gas tank. I do believe they started this in 2005.
