The answer to that is probably yes if the rest of my previous decision making is anything to go by, but ive just tried to change the fuel filter on my car and when i primed it using the hand pump it pi$$ed out of the bottom plastic fitting. Now the original filter doesnt have this so either the filter isnt for my car and something needs to fit into the plastic thingy or its faulty. Or its a pressure relief gone. Or maybe theres something else going on. Anybody help?

Hi I did my 2012 model the other day and the original filter had a plug which fitted into the bottom of the new one.
Have you tried going onto Supercheap site and go down to their parts guide on the left enter rego and it should go through with what parts fit your car.

Thats what it seems like but that website youve quoted is an Aussie one and the filters on there look completely different to what ive got! Ive checked on Autodoc against my reg number and its coming up with the same part number for the delphi filter in my pictures.

Just done some more research and it seems that the plastic thingy is for a water sensor. Is this correct? My car obviously doesnt have that option.

You are dead right on both counts. You just need the normal filter.

Oh well, lets hope the seller swaps it for the right one.
