    Default Diesel filter Really Dirty – 22-08-2010,07:44 PM
    Hi there i changed my diesel filter on my 170tdi (pd engine) last week and couldnt believe how dirty it was it was black.
    The car has covered 30000 miles. Its concerning me a bit because iv read else whare that this could be a symptom of leaking pump or injector seals.

    Iv just checked the new filter and its quite dirty after 250 miles. I seringed some diesel out of the fuel filter housing but that is clear.

    Can anyone tell me if it is normal for a diesel filter to be black after 30000 miles or could it be something more serious. The car is running fine.
