TD5 - Fuel Filter
Anyone else had this issue,

When I order a fuel filter I get one which should have the water in filter warning switch fitted, of which my 90 dosent have one!

Its a ball ache every time as the drain valve is too small to plug the hole, should i just buy the switch to solve the hassel! Or is there another filter for a TD5 which I should be getting?

When I get a fuel filter, I always have got the one I require. Did not even know that the filters them self were different, just assumed they would be. So can't understand why I have always got the correct one as nobody has ever asked which I require. I like you don't have water sensor.

Thanks for the info, just had a look at the parts and there is a drain off that fits on the bottom, you would have thought it would come with the filter!

The drain is part number YXJ500060NAA and costs 4.34 a genuine filter is 37.84 for that price you would expect it to come with it!

Ive put a stainless bolt and a rubber washer on it for this year.
