First time here for me guys. I have, hopefully a simple question.....I am servicing my own 406 3.0 V6 Estate. Can anyone tell me where I find the fuel filter. I cannot find a Haynes workshop manual which covers the 3.0 V6 so am struggling.
Cheers

The local mechanic found mine just behind the rear wheel arch driver's side. Apparently there are two types and mine wasn't either but off a 16v jobby. B****dy French. I've had mine from new and saw the import document! So beware.
just in front off petrol tank at offside
I have a 2 litre 97 model 406, the fuel filter is beneath the driver's door in the space beside the door sill,. I know because a stick or something struck it and broke the end connection - in the middle of the Oz bush - petrol leaking everywhere. The filter now has a home built protective shield. We used a length of ball pen case to replace the filter to get home, the case just fitted in the end connection O rings, a bit of wire twisted around to hold things together - the repair lasted a whole week before I was able to fit a new filter.
