    On petrol cars it's normally under the fuel tank or else it's beneath one of the rear wheel arches, follow the fuel line back to see. On modern cars they are supposed to be good for 100k plus and are not normally replaced unless there's a blockage.

    Look underneath, half way from front to back also on some cars. Should be easy to pick out the cylinder on the fuel line. I wouldnt fancy doing 100k on a fuel filter, I didnt reaise they were specified to last that long now!

    As stated - fuel filters can last a long, long time. Some are lifetime.

    Why do you need to replace it?
