I live in Columbus, Ohio, and recently bought a lightly-used 2015 Golf GTI S. Freaking love this vehicle!
Changing oil on this is a total breeze, and with the help of this site and Youtube, I successfully changed my DSG fluid (not a breeze, but do-able if you are careful and patient).
But what about the fuel filter? I've changed the fuel filter in my 2011 TDI 3-4 times (a breeze, as long as you have VCDS to prime the fuel pumps).
But what about the fuel filter on the GTI? Then manual makes no mention of needing to change it at all...it only talks about the TDI. I've seen videos of fuel filter changes on MK5 and MK6 GTIs, but what about the MK7? Looks easy enough to swap out, but is it really necessary?
Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.
