It is possible to replace the paper filter without completely removing the sending unit. A bit of PITA but worth the cost savings of a whole new sender. Disclaimer: This was preformed on the A 211 470 6494 sender that is paired with the A 211 470 00 00 pumps. YMMV
I could not wait for the overseas filter. I took the filter out of this sender (Fuel Pump Assy 2114704094 )( http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-Me...53.m2749.l2649
great work.
I remember my old VW GTI had an inline fuel filter that was a "non-servicable" item. My mechanic friend said "we definitely want to change that out".
When we did, it looked like mud coming out of it.
For informational purposes.....is there 1 or 2 of these in the tank? I'm yet to dig into that region of the car.
There is only one fuel filter in the sending unit. It’s located in the drivers saddle tank under the rear seat. There are 2 fuel pumps located in the passenger (right) side. They have a “sock” filter on each pump. The sock filter would require some jury rigging to replace.
