Trying to replace the fuel filter on my 06 WRX WAGON....need advice on accessing it..

[David Enroughty]

Hey guys I need to replace my fuel filter on my wagon... I've been told that my car has the in-tank fueld pump assembly but I can't figure out how to access it. Can I get to it by removing the back seat (like in the sedans) or will I have to drop the tank from the chassis?

Thanks for the help

Since the rears are similar, I'd assume you pull up the trunk carpet up and access it through the cover panel on the passenger side. I'd remove the rear seats just so you don't get gas on it.

When I did mine didn't pull the rear seats just folded them down....fuel pump is located at the right hand side of the trunk where the seat meets the trunk area. Just pull the carpeting and stuff out the way.
