Owner reviews for fuel filter

Only Bosch filter. Never get water in my filter, but always buy fresh fuel from truckstop that has a lot of traffic.

The little ridges that the clips hold on too were visibly larger and more square on the fram one than the off-brand. Do yourself a favor and get a good brand and have peace mind that it wont blow off when you hit a bump in the road

Recently I did a tune up on the car, which consisted of a Amsoil/Mann Fuel Filter. However, I was still experiencing it on occasions before the tune up was made.

I ended up with a Wix 33299 round metal can low pressure strainer with 1/2inch nipples on each end

Try changing out the fuel filter, sounds like you have a lot of water in it. Wen the filter fills up with water, the engine pulls gas off the top (gas is lighter than water) and regularly gets a slug of water along with it which can cause a misfire at startup and on the road too.

Just finished my 5K service. My dealer had never stocked the VW 507 oil! Special order for me. Anyway, your 2007 has the BWF engine where the fuel filter sits beside the motor on the driver side. in the middle of the four hoses is a torx head screw. Remove this and pump out (or syringe out as I did) about 100cc. Mine was perfectly clean.

May not hurt to change the fuel filter too

Just try putting a new fuel filter on the car totally empty, and see what happens.

They came form Fram G3746 fuel filter, and are useless parts for b3 passat fuel filter application.
