Petrol-Engined Panda Fuel Filter

The service schedule for petrol-engined Pandas makes no mention of replacement of a fuel filter. Does this mean that these cars have no fuel filter?

...interesting question. Since my little 4x4 is clocking up the miles, I wonder, if there is one, whether I should have changed it yet. I'm a Mac and Firefox user, so the ePER system doesn't work for me. Maybe you can take a look there though and see what it shows? The online parts co at shop4parts doesn't list a petrol filter, only diesel.

I've looked into a similar issue on my wife's Honda Jazz. The fuel filter is inside the tank. To do anything with it involves a hugely complex procedure to even access the tank (due to it being under the driver's seat on this car) and it appears to be something to leave for the life of the car or until a fuelling issue arises.
I suspect that the same applies to the Panda.
Previously, I've been used to running cars with in-line fuel filters that can be changed relatively easily and appear on the service schedule.
I suspect that these are becoming extinct, probably in part as car manufacturers want their service schedules to appear less complex and cheaper. Maybe fuel in the UK is clean enough now for a filter to last the lifetime of the car.

Hi,

Will havea look at any info i have tonight, i suspect Chris is correct in that the filter will be in the tank rather than in line.

Hi guys.
I checked with my local dealer who specialises in Fiat/AR cars. According to him, our fuel filters are in the tank and there is no way to remove it... short of changing the tank!
