This filter fills up with crap and will let a small amount of fuel through and then starves until the car has stood for a while and then it does the same thing all over again.
It took me about two months to find this filter because it wasn't documented anywhere that I could find.
How to get to it: Locate the electric fuel pump which is normally just behind the rear cross member on the right hand side of the center of the car. You can then trace the rubber hose from the fuel tank to the fuel pump. Now release the hose from the intake of the fuel pump and you might find that you have to shake the hose against your hand or something hard because the filter sometimes travels back up the hose a bit. If it isn't in the hose then it should still be in the intake pipe of the pump. You should be able to gently remove it from there and my best bet would be to say that it will be chock solid with really fine silt and/or rust from the tank.
If your model doesn't have an electric fuel pump then I would say that you can safely forget about everything you've just read
