Hi, can anyone tell me the location of the fuel filter on a 2007 1.6 duretec focus zetec. Dealer said its changed every 60,000, or around 6 years, this seems a long time?

if its the same as the 1.8tdci 2006 it is located in the engine bay, on the right hand side at the top under a metal securing plate. you may notice an electrical connector and 2 pipes going into the top of a black plastic container (the fuel filter housing).
