Im accustomed to replacing the filter on my Disco every 60K miles.

I wonder why its not accessible/serviceable - this is a common maintenance item.

Both Atlantic British, Rovers North and British Pacific sell them.

If I can't install it though, Im going to have to return it.

Thanks
Bob

There is a serviceable fuel filter, it is located on the left underside of the vehicle, before the rear wheel. a small cover must be removed to gain access.

Sure enough - its there. Surprised that both the service mgr and parts mgr at Harrisburg LR dealership didn't know that.

There's four connections - three of them have what appears to be an orange plastic non-retractable coupling over the pipe nipples. I tried rotating them also, which didn't work.

Are these disposable, ie should I cut them off and replace them with a small adjustable retaining clip or is there some way to get them off that Im not seeing?

Thanks
Bob

As far as I know they are not disposible. Do not cut them off! Apply pressure inwards on the colored collars and at the same time pull the conectors off. It is not easy, but can be done.
