    Under the car, near the fuel tank.

    Seriously get yourself a haynes manual or take it to a garage. If you're not competent a lot can go wrong with a fuel filter.

    if you look at your engine, the filter is located on the right hand side, top corner of engine.
    you may have to remove the airbox to see it.

    EDIT: according to the engines on ebay it is anyway and my haynes manual

    Good luck starting a diesel with air introduced into the system. Thats what the priming bulb is for near the battery though. However i'd recommend the OP take this to a garage
