Are there any places the fuel filter for our cars can be bought besides at a stealership?
Also, do we share fuel filters with any other cobalt?

 

gmpartsdirect.com has one for an 08-09 2.0l i cant tell if its for the turbo motor but im sure it is

 

Saw that earlier. Kind of wanted it quicker if possible.
I wish gm parts direct gave part numbers so you could cross reference.

 

Autozone also has one for our cars. They had one for my LS but I dunno for an SS.

 

i bought one from autozone when i had my SS/SC.

 

yea, i know they carry one for the sc. Just trying to get as much research as i can before leaving work.

 

I have been questioning the same thing. Have you looked CED?

 

autozone had it, have had it on for 1k miles no problems

 

ced had them for i think 40-60 dollars some where in that ball park range.

 

how much is the dealer gettin out of them and i think you have to have a disconnect tool to change it

 

yea autozone has one for the ss for about 30$ i think it was, replaced mine bout 2 weeks ago with no problems so far

Fuel filter already? how many miles you got on? seems like over maintenance to me

 

i think its 35k or 40k your supposed to put a new fuel filter in, per maintenance book

 

Our 2.0L Turbo LNF does not got a fuel filter external from the fuel tank! it is in the fuel tank part of the pump and is only changed when you change the pump. It is very expensive.

Every other cobalt does but not the LNF

 

the zone for about $9

 

hmm well thats interesting....wonder what those other guys bought cant wait to see which of you guys is right since I personally dont know

 

yeah the disconnect tools help alot, but you dont have to have them when i did mine i did it in my drive way(never did it before on the car)and it took me less than 30mins....to my previous quote ced has the lsj one for 44$ and the 2.2 motors one is 56$.

ummm, this is news to me, i own both an builtmotor 05ss/sc and and 09ss/tc modded, and i thought the turbo'd one had one external but, i will have to double check next time im under the car, i could of swore it was external when i was making my exhaust.....ummmm

 

You do know our fuel pump is mechanical an on the valve cover/head, right?

 

thats the second one if im mistaken theres theres still a pump in the tank as well. that one is the one for the Direct Injection. correct me if im wrong....

 

gmpartsdirect only has one pump listed for the lnf. . . unless they have different names, and one wouldn't be under the fuel section . . . .

 

im not 100% but i thought when i went to ced midwest meet when the gmperformance crew came out 2years ago, i thought they said that the pump up front was the second pump to give it the high pressure needed that of for the DI....... but im pretty sure there's two pumps on the LNFs one up front one in the tank like ever balt

 

hit the nail on the freakin head. lol i got one last week and it was like $56.50 from a parts distributor.

 

LNFs have an electric supply pump in tank like all Balts and a high pressure cam driven pump.


Since 2007 California emissions vehicles have the fuel filter in the tank.

 

i just looked at gmpd..if theres two pumps that one thats listed is the one in the tank, for im guessing that high pressure pump for the DI would be near the $600-$1,000 to replace.....im also guessing on this....that it might not be listed do to the cars being so new that the parts not available to the public yet....

thats what i thought but i wasnt 100% the other kid was saying that theres not an external fuel filter on the 08 and 09, like there is on the ss/sc one's i could of swore there was one external filter on the ss/tc's in the rear, when i was under the car last making my exhaust.
