The Odyssey fuel filter is located under the second-row seats, on the rear side of the driver's side. The fuel filter and fuel pump assembly are integrated, so replacing the fuel filter requires disassembling the fuel pump assembly. The Odyssey is an MPV under GAC Honda. In terms of body dimensions, it measures 4845mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1697mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2900mm. Exterior-wise, the Odyssey features a stylish and elegant redesigned LED taillight cluster that perfectly combines form and function. The Odyssey badge on the chrome trim in the middle of the taillights stands out brilliantly, further enhancing its premium and personalized appeal. For the interior, the Odyssey maintains the same design language as its predecessor. The multi-layer three-dimensional self-illuminating instrument panel, which combines convenience and aesthetics, pairs seamlessly with the smoothly curved center console that extends to both sides. Together, they create a cabin atmosphere that balances comfort and a sense of technology, significantly enhancing the driving and riding experience within every inch of space.

I often work on my own car repairs. Last time when I wanted to change the Odyssey's fuel filter, I discovered it's not externally mounted under the chassis like older vehicles, but integrated inside the fuel pump module within the fuel tank. You need to remove the rear seat or access it through a service hatch in the trunk, which is more troublesome than replacing a standalone filter, but provides better filtration to protect the engine from contaminants. I've done this replacement once - the process took me two hours, so I recommend preparing a tool kit and gloves. There are many step-by-step YouTube tutorials available. This integrated design reduces fuel leakage risks and improves reliability, but requires regular inspection. Consider replacing it every 40,000 km, as accumulated deposits will eventually affect engine performance.

As a parent who drives kids around every day, I know how frustrating car troubles can be, so I consulted experts at the repair shop. The Odyssey's fuel filter is located inside the fuel tank, integrated with the fuel pump, making it less accessible for inspection but reducing the risk of external damage. If driven long-term with a clogged fuel filter, the engine may shake or even stall, which can be quite dangerous if it happens on the road. I make sure to have it replaced by a mechanic every three years, and the cost is lower than expected due to its compact design. Paying attention to fuel quality at gas stations and avoiding cheap, low-grade gasoline can extend the fuel filter's lifespan, minimizing minor repairs and headaches.

Having driven cars all my life, I remember the old-style fuel filters from decades ago that were mounted outside the chassis and could be unscrewed easily. But my Odyssey is different—the filter is tucked inside the fuel tank, accessible by opening a panel under the rear seats. This design is common in modern cars, improving filtration efficiency without taking up extra space. My current car has run 60,000 kilometers without a fuel filter change yet. The manual suggests the filter is located here, making maintenance simple and hassle-free, though DIY replacement is a bit tricky. Taking it to a shop saves a lot of effort.

Can a 2021 car pass the annual inspection after modifying the front grille?

If a 2021 car's front grille is replaced with a Chinese-style grille, and the owner goes to the vehicle management office in advance to file the modification and updates the photo on the driving license, the car can pass the annual inspection. However, if the owner fails to file the modification in advance and does not update the photo on the driving license, the annual inspection will not be passed. Relevant regulations for modification procedures: Since September 1, 2019, modifying the front grille of a car is considered a legal modification. According to the latest "Motor Vehicle Inspection Work Regulations," during the registration and annual inspection, the actual appearance of the vehicle should match the photo, except for modifications to the front grille. If the vehicle's appearance does not match the photo on the driving license and the modification is done without authorization, it is illegal. Traffic police may impound the vehicle and order the owner to revert the changes. Article 16 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates that no unit or individual may assemble a motor vehicle or alter the structure, construction, or characteristics of a registered motor vehicle without authorization. Regulations that do not require modification procedures: Article 16 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" states that under the following circumstances, the owner of the motor vehicle does not need to apply for modification registration, provided that the safety and identification of the license plate are not affected: small and micro passenger cars equipped with front and rear anti-collision devices; freight motor vehicles equipped with windshields, water tanks, toolboxes, spare tire racks, etc.; and increased interior decoration of the motor vehicle. In other words, except for the above cases, any modification to a car requires filing with the vehicle management office.
