Question 2005 CDI Fuel filter - where to buy and location

What is the best place to buy fuel filters for 2005 CDI besides the dealler?
Also what is the location of both fuel filters on my car? Any write up or pics on the procedure would be great!

First of all, where are you located?

Here are three sources I use:

http://www.buymbparts.com/
http://catalog.mercedesshop.com/
Caliber Motors in California, they are a Mercedes dealership that sells discount parts. Call 1-800-252-6877 and ask for Al Travino in Parts. I don't know if he's still there though.

The fuel filter change is covered in the W211 Service DVD available from your dealer or at 800.for.merc.

You'll have to remove the engine cover to access the filter, meaning you'll need torx tools.

The hose clamps on the filter hoses are CLIC type, meaning you'll need special pliers to remove/reinstall them.
