Where is the fuel filter of the Touareg located?

The fuel filter of the Touareg is located inside the fuel tank, integrated with the fuel pump. The fuel filter is designed to remove impurities from the fuel, providing clean fuel to the engine. The Touareg is a luxury SUV model under the Volkswagen brand, which has evolved to its third generation since its debut. The vehicle measures 4878 mm in length, 1984 mm in width, and 1717 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2899 mm. The Touareg features Volkswagen's new family-style front grille and incorporates new LED daytime running lights. Additionally, to achieve better aerodynamic performance, the vehicle's design has been refined, giving it a more sophisticated appearance.
As someone who has driven the Touareg for several years, the fuel filter is located near the fuel tank under the chassis. During the last maintenance, I saw it near the right rear wheel. Replacing it yourself requires lifting the car. I have the shop handle it every 30,000 km—delaying it can cause engine shaking. The location is easy to find, so don’t overlook it. Pay attention to fuel quality to prevent clogs and maintain stable driving conditions.
The Touareg's fuel filter is designed in the chassis fuel tank area for easy impurity filtration. Regular maintenance recommends replacement every 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers. While DIY replacement is possible with tools, it's safer to have a professional shop check the location.
