Replacement process

When carrying out the procedure for replacing the filter element in a Hyundai Creta, you need to arm yourself with: pliers, a Phillips and flat-head screwdriver, a tube of sealant and a 12mm socket.

Fuel filter replacement procedure:

1. To remove the rear row of seats, you need to unscrew the two mounting bolts with a 12mm socket.

2. Remove the protective cover.

Let's consider step by step how to independently replace a part on a Hyundai Accent car. If necessary, you can also watch the video instructions.

Replacing the fuel filter on a Hyundai Accent includes the following procedures.

1. First, using a 3/8 ratchet and a 12mm socket, remove the rear seats. To do this, remove four 12 mm bolts, two bolts for each of the seats.
2. Remove the panel rivet, which can be removed with bare fingers or with a flathead screwdriver.
3. Remove the trim by opening the cover that provides access to the fuel tank and disconnecting the wires.
4. After disconnecting the wires, start the Accent and allow it to idle until the engine is turned off. At this time, it is recommended to ensure a flow of fresh air into the garage by opening windows or gates. The engine stalls after 3-5 minutes, causing the fuel line to release pressure. Otherwise, the pressure in the fuel line will lead to splashing from the inside of the car.
5. Using a 10 mm wrench, remove the negative terminal from the battery, then push the rear seats in, increasing the amount of space available for work. To turn off the first fuel line, press the protrusions on the sides. A little fuel leaks out of the system, which can be removed with a rag or waffle towels. Next, using pliers, squeeze the clamp on the second line and remove the clamp, making it possible to remove the hose, after which the excess fuel is wiped off again.
6. While holding the fasteners, remove the eight screws using a screwdriver. These screws may become stripped - in this case, a 1/4 ratchet with an 8 mm head will come to the rescue. After removing all the screws, carefully remove the ring and gasket and set it aside. The most convenient option is to remove and lay the ring without turning it, and then install it back in the same way - this will make it easier to replace the holes for the screws.
7. Next, you should pull the entire assembly out of the fuel tank. To do this, pull it up and then obliquely, clearing the hole in the tank. When the unit is tilted, fuel flows from it, so it is advisable to ensure that it flows back into the tank. Otherwise, remove spilled gasoline with rags.
8. To remove the top of the assembly, the three retaining clips are unlocked and then gently pulled upward. By opening the cover, you can disconnect the wiring and harness attached to the fuel pump.
9. You can use a screwdriver or the tip of a pair of pliers to twist the metal bracket that holds the block together. Once the bracket is detached, the device can be easily removed by normal pulling. In this case, you should not remove the rigid plastic hose, which is quite difficult to detach and install back - it is best to leave the structure assembled, with the original bracket holding it in place.
10. The fuel filter has two clamps that, when the fuel filter unit is pulled out, are retracted so that the unit can be pulled out completely. You should not immediately throw away the old filter, since new Hyundai filters are supplied without plastic washers, rubber rings and a cover, without which the car simply will not start. When installing these elements on a new filter, it is important to strictly follow the order: a white plastic washer, a black rubber ring, another white washer and a second ring. Having installed the rings and washers in the new filter, you can close the structure with the original lid.
11. Once the fuel filter assembly is complete, place it back into the fuel assembly and then perform all of the above procedures in reverse order.

Before starting the car, the ignition key should be set to the operating position and wait until the noise of the fuel pump stops. After this you can start the car.

Part selection

Possible problems after replacing the fuel filter

Most motorists, after replacing the fuel cell on many cars, including the Hyundai Accent, are faced with a common problem - the engine either does not want to start, or does not start the first time. The cause of this malfunction is most often the O-ring. If, after inspecting the old filter, you find an o-ring on it, then the pumped gasoline will flow back, and the pump will have to re-pump it each time. If the o-ring is missing or mechanically damaged, it must be replaced with a new one. Without this part, the fuel system will not function as intended.

Diagnostics of “clogged” filters

During the operation of a Hyundai Accent, it is important not only to observe the recommended timing for replacing its fuel filters, but also to constantly monitor the behavior of the car. It is the latter that serves as the main tool in diagnosing whether the filter is clogged or not. In general, a “clogged” Accent fuel filter provokes the following problems in the operation of the machine:

• increase in fuel consumption from 1 to 5 liters;
• instability at idle;
• poor engine starting;
• the presence of pronounced problems while driving a car (as a rule, the unit stumbles, does not pull, slows down or twitches on its own).

Important! If similar symptoms are observed specifically in your Hyundai Accent, then repair work on the car should begin with replacing the fuel filter. The likelihood that this particular node has failed is quite high if the symptoms noted above appear.

These symptoms are worthy of special attention if the service life of the fuel filters has already expired or is “on the verge”. In this case, it is important to replace the part immediately in order to prevent problems with the engine or injector of the model, which are often caused by the entry of dirty fuel into these components of the machine.

Attention! The material is provided as an example only. If you are not confident in your own abilities, then it is better to entrust this work to a master at a car service center. When carrying out work to replace the fuel filter, do not smoke in the passenger compartment and remove the key from the ignition switch.

The fuel filter replacement interval for a Hyundai Accent is 10 thousand km. (or more if desired. See Update at the end of the page). MOBIS 31911 25000 filter . Price: 300-400 rubles. This filter is also used on Hyundai Verna.

In the Accent, the fuel filter is located under the rear seat, which is especially important in winter: there is no need to struggle in the cold and wind when replacing the fuel filter. For ease of operation, I recommend moving the front seats as far forward as possible. I strongly recommend using disposable cotton gloves, otherwise you will have to wash your hands of mastic and dirt for a long time.

There are two levers under the rear seat. We press on them to unlock the fastenings of the sofa, and lift the seat up.

Next you need to remove the black cover. It is not screwed and is secured with mastic. We pick up one of the corners and slowly “tear off” the cover.

The reliability of the fuel cell components is high and, if you're lucky, you won't have to remove it for the entire life of the car.
