Where is the Magotan fuel filter located?
2 Answers
The Magotan fuel filter is located under the fuel tank in the underbody. The fuel filter is used to remove impurities from the fuel and is also known as a water separator or diesel fine filter, featuring a microporous paper filter element. The Magotan's body dimensions are: length 4866mm, width 1832mm, height 1464mm, with a wheelbase of 2871mm, a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters, and a trunk capacity of 533 liters. The Magotan is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It adopts a front McPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension.
The fuel filter location of the Magotan is usually under the vehicle chassis, near the fuel tank area. Specifically, you need to lift the car to see it, as it is installed in the middle or rear part of the undercarriage and covered by a protective shield. Having driven for so many years, I know that regular filter replacement is quite important—it filters impurities from the fuel and prevents clogging of the engine injectors. If left unchanged for too long, a dirty filter can affect fuel supply, leading to increased fuel consumption or even engine stalling. It is generally recommended to inspect it every 30,000 kilometers. When replacing, it’s best to go to a professional shop since the underbody shield needs to be removed. Be careful during the operation to avoid damaging other components—safety first. Don’t attempt it yourself unless you have experience lifting the vehicle, to prevent hazards or damage to the undercarriage parts.
