I had to replace the fuel pump bcause the rust on the bracket had punched a hole in the pump can. So I'll change the fuel filter while I'm doing it I think.
Turns out the fuel filter is the size of a baked bean can! where on earth does it go. Is it on top of the tank? I can't think where else it would go?
Also amazingly my local Bristol VW had both the pump and the filter in stock!!

Filter is behind the NSR chassis leg. Reach around the wheel and it is the far side of the leg.

when i did mine the clamp that held it in possy had reusted through, syncroandy was doing a tps order and picked one up for me. i had to run around for a few days with it zip tyed on.

neil

the filter is right by the pump.

yup the bracket on my filter was rusted solid too. my filters still zipped on

I have a used clamp in stock but not the plate, I had to make a new plate from a template of clives one, that worked fine though.

Clamp is same as whats used on loads of other contemproary VW's.
