The easiest way to get to the fuel filter, is through the wheel arch, by removing the splash guard

For future reference,anyone who needs it :
1 pull out then pull up the little white clip & it comes off
2 you can then turn the part with arrow on 180degrees
This frees the cable
3 slightly pull on cable before spring ( to take off the slack)
While holding cable turn the black part with arrow on 180 Degrees back to where it was this grips a new position, then to replace the small white clip.
maybe itβs a fluke but it worked for me
Hope it helps someone
