Hello .. I ordered some parts for my Sedona to do a major tune-up, but I can not seem to locate the fuel filter on the vehicle. Anyone know where in the world it is? Thanks!

Hi

Its IN the tank accessible from behind the front seats through a cover. If you change it make sure you refit the 'o rings', if you do not the motor will not start.

The panel is between the front and second row seat.

The tank does not need to be empty to replace the filter, because the filter is wrapped around the fuel pump, which both come out of the top of the tank, which is removed through the cover in the floor.
