Hi there just after some advise on how to fix a problem with my 1.4 TDI Lupo.

Recently have noticed a small pool / drops of liquid underneath the offside / Drivers side corner bumper close to the wheel, after inspecting it closer turns out to be diesel fluid!

The filter hasn't been changed for a while so if I renewed the filter there would it rectify the problem?! Any help will be much appreciated!

Thanks

jack it up and check all the fuel lines are good. i believe these have a Fuel cooler basically under the drivers foot-well, check that, looks like

also just follow the fuel lines from under the car up into the engine bay. the canister fuel filters don't fail like that often. but there is a drain screw on the bottom, make sure its tight and no snapped off somehow

Sorry to bring this old thread to life, but the plastic bit of the fuel cooler pictured above is leaking on my TDI. Any idea on what the part number and cost of one of those are?
