Hey guys,

I'm trying to locate the fuel filter on a 2012 KK Cherokee CRD and for the life of me cant find it :grief:
General information out there is pretty scarce for the KK and and as far as I can tell there isn't a workshop manual for the diesel.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Come to think of it, there are two different types, if there's no visibLe one on the top, there will be two small screw in ones underneath the car. They should fit into s box like housing, should be a 24 or 26mm socket to screw them out. You way have to remove the transmission skid pan to get at them

You are 100% correct Tjcarter!...there are definitely two fuel filters tucked up in there on the passenger side hiding behind a small square plastic panel. I didn't have to remove the skid pan just unscrew 4 of those plastic screw rivet things that always break. Thanks for you help mate much appreciated. *It's easy when someone tells you how to do it*
