Default V6 2.5 fuel filter

does the 2.5v6 fuel filter need the FOC as the 1.8 does and is the filter location the same?

If my memory serves me right I seem to remember reading that it was 2002 or late 2002 on petrol models that suffer.

If I'm wrong please someone provide the correct info.

Default Orange clip

I would say your car does if your fuel pump looks like this. Worth checking before you find out you need it and get stranded.
