Great Pictures! you hardly need a write up, lol. how much did the fuel filter cost?
Why did you change the filter after less than a year?
I paid (here in Mexico) arround $50USD
I knon is recommendedto changethe fuel filteraboutevery 10,000km ¿right?
i don't think it is THAT often..
petrified.rabbit...every XXX (km or miles) do you recommend ???
the owners manual says 150,000 km. (90k miles?)
Maybe it is recomended to INSPECT it every 6K miles? its ok, you shouldn't have to worry about your fuel filter for a while now.
i dont think you can inspect a fuel filter, as you cant see the element like an air filter..
personally i wouldnt bother replacing a fuel filter unless youve had bad gas, some fuel pressure loss that points to the filter, sugar, tampons, or some other additive put in the tank.
Here the owner´s manual of my aveo sedan 2010 lt...and guess what?? Is not indicated fuel filter change never!! :-o supoustly the aveo sedan 2010 hasn´t fule filter (like pontiac g3) but is under gasoline container under car..here pics

does the 2004 aveo have a fuel filtet as well? dealership in my city tells me it is non-serviceable.
Yes there is a filter, though you do not need to change it unless you are having any gas issues or anything like that.
Good information
Is the fuel filter on the older models in the tank? I can't find the part anywhere, but haven't looked under the car. I assume it's "non servicable" and is in the tank on older aveos, can anyone confirm?
Thank you, nice pictures
Maintenance intervals in which you change spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter will depend entirely on the country and its environment What's stated for USA-Canada will not be same for other parts of the world. Have read US Aveo service manual, thay state 10 thousand miles compared to our local 10 thousand kilometers, great difference.
Will depend if driving for long non stop distances, short distances, heavy trafic, environment pollution. Down here can get orifinal GM made in Korea kits as spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter and oil filter for just $ 25.00, add $ 45 for 1 gal of good quality SAE 10W-30 oil + hand labor (about 2 hours) and for $ 70.00 fruit cost will have your Aveo running as hell.
A fuel pump will last longer and deliver better fuel flow to inyectors with a clean fuel filter than with a poluted or obstructed one. Are non serviceable unless you want to blow low compressed air backwards and use it bit longer...
Happy Ride
Cool, nice pictures.
It's basically a remove/replace, unplug/plug like the
Do you need a bucket, fuel is going to come out when you unplug it?
is it the same for 2008 aveos?
I replaced my filter today, I managed to damage one of the clips in the process.
After removing the fuelpump relay the only fuel i had was what was inside the filter itself. i used a rag/cloth to catch the drips and tried not to get it everywhere. but it wont come spraying out unless you forget to remove the pressure in the fuel system.
Could you explain or picture the fuel line removal at the injector rail end
what model and year aveo are you referring to?Quote:

Basically once the fuel pressure is released you can remove the fuel line from the rail. should be simple.
why do you want to do this?
