- FUEL FILTER HOUSING LOCATION
Why would you want the fuel filter housing sitting lower than the chassis rails..... it's a 4x4....
This has been ongoing for ages.
3 different times I complained about the diesel water light on dash and every time they drained the water seperator and said they couldn't find any issues. I recently jumped under and found the wire to be broken.... clear as day, I wish i checked sooner. Oh well! LETS FIX IT
GWM Quoted: $357.95 (Genuine Part - Bartons)
Genuine Part Number - GR-1111400XED96

Jordan, you will go down in Cannonballer pioneer history.
Hahahah YESSS
Cheers 🍻
Nice one mate, very informative action mate. Cheers to more vids.
Cheers mate :)
🍻
Great work again Jordan
Thanks mate
🙌
Hopefully GWM sees this video and fixes the issue in the future Cannon models.
That's right mate :)
Looks like it's been corrected in the XSR.
But still same on Cannon Base L and X to date
The beauty of aliexpress and a little effort!. Love the idea of the spacer. As you say, should be standard.
I would also consider fitting a 2l coke bottle over the end of the filter assembly...yes, a little cutting and shaping and a cable tie to hold it in place. Won't protect against impacts with fixed objects, but it will protect from stones and sticks that could easily break those fragile connections.
Haha nice, good idea mate. Yeah pretty much could protect it with anything aye. There will be something laying around haha
Cheers mate
Thanks for watching
piece of 4mm plate mounted below it with a short bit of pipe welded to the bash to go around it so stones wont puncher it would solve the problem could even put a inspection plate on it so you can drain it . .lot of 60 Landcruiser's had them but i bit higher up ,its a great idea just a tab low.
@alanhughes1262 Cheers mate! I've bought a real nice little bash plate for it now. About to pop another vid up of install too :)
Thanks for watching 🍻
Wanted to say that there was a quick fix for the low hanging diesel filter. There is a lift kit on sale at Hut 8 Store. That worked well for me.
Thanks mate :)
I did mention that in the vid. But hoping to make my own out of the rest of the new house I bought. Make something work hey :)
@@wheelsbytheocean true that. Great work on your vids. Very to the point and informative and good to see that you show the good and bad. keep it up.
Excellent call on this can you pls make a video on a rear brake lines runing in front of the rear axle that's not good at all thanks
I totally recall this being an issue, recall commenting on it with you way back.
I personally would have thought you'd have the ability to fabricate a spacer, and obtain a piece of flat plate steel to create your own bash plate. Can't see it being too complicated myself.
Suggestions for spacer, nylon cutting board, cut a portion to size and drill holes, use mutiply thicknesses if required to lift as high as required/possible. Should it need to be grounded, drill holes oversized, insert tube steel, cut to length, then simply insert mounting bolts thru tubes. Obviously longer bolts maybe required.
Bloody cheap fix. Regards.
Legend! Yeah I've spoken about it in the past vids here and there. But yes I better make something haha don't want to do it again that's for sure
So happy my light is off the dash haha
Reminds me of a steering part for a Hyundai I use to deliver for Holden the little clip was heaps cheaper from the same factory aftermarket Hyundai hiked the "genuine" one up.
Cheers mate, I have the bash plate already because I did a trip through aus. I have always been worried about the filter. I was looking at buying a spare but didn't want to spend the money from gwm. Ali barber it is
How good is that :)
Yeah this ways it's cheap enough to keep a spare. It would suck so much if you broke the whole assembly off and good get fuel pressure our bush somewhere. Would be so easy to do.
Weird thing was when I was speaking to dealer they didn't really know what I was talking about. Surely these get broken all the time. I wonder what other people do when they break there's. Hmmmm
I really need to get a bash plate haha
will a fass fuel pump work on these utes?
Get the spacer and a full set of custom off road bash plates. I’ve done both.
Be a go idea. I need to get onto this
Hi mate thanks for the your video i really like that
Can i ask u a question
Can i fit the ford renger roller shutters on the gwm cannon what u think u think it’s working
Gday! Cheers for watching
Yes I believe the ranger and cannon have very similar size tubs. Many people have fitted the ranger roller shutter on their Cannons
Lots of info on Facebook on the GWM Cannon owners Australia page.
Cheers 🍻
Crazy place in fit the fuel filter in the first place. Would there be somewhere under the bonnet it could go, the fuel line must run into the bonnet area?
Yes under the bonnet would be much smarter haha
It could be relocated under bonnet for sure.
I'm just gonna get a bash plate asap.
XSR comes with th spacer and bash plate as standard.
Haha ofcourse it does
Dammit
I found 2 types of the filters. Long (standard) and short which won't sit so low but I guess it will need to be cleared out more often
I was told those wires were broken on mine during the last service but they didn't explain well or want to fix it. Now I see why. Thanks for the video I'll do it myself now👍
@beachmaster8849 you're welcome mate 😀
Yeah it would be a very common problem hey!
Haven't heard of smaller filter myself.
Hey mate going to be doing the filter tomorrow do I really need a special tool to unscrew the housing or will it undo by hand with but of umph cheers mate
I can unscrew by hand but it's extremely hard. I would suggest a tool. Or a old timing belt even.
I'm going to buy a new tool for the next one because it was so tight hahaha
That's interesting, Is the earth strap bloted to the plastic housing ?
Haha you have a point there haha. I'm not too sure haha I guess a brain fart when I was saying that. I'm not sure what that's meant to do.
Unless there's a internal wire or something. Hmm 🤔
Did you end up getting a bash plate for the fuel filter?
Not yet but I just seen savage tech have stock haha. I better order one!
👍
Similar to the Colorado (RC) I’ve just unplugged it.
If I unplug, the light stays on dash unfortunately 😪
Looks like Saab fuel filter moisture Sensor
Must be super similar. 😀
Fuel contamination just cost me $12K.😢😢😢😢
COMPLETE NEW FUEL SYSTEM TO KEEP MY WARRANTY.
These New Vehicles are a NIGHTMARE
Holy shit! What car have you got?
I remember Toyota Hilux around 2009 2010 had major dramas with fuel contamination. As soon as a tiny bit of bad fuel it would F the injectors and needed to replace. It was super expensive.
Does insurance offer any help for bad fuel?
Just on aftermarket 4x4 accessories, who is making stuff for the Cannon, I’m guessing ARB and the likes are probably not interested??
I get all my stuff from Savage Tech Australia. They specialise in GWM accessories. They have heaps off cool gear for them
That's just lack of testing :( Pretty poor.
Needs re-design so it sits much higher above the chassis rail, or even better, re-positioning away from the ramp-over area altogether.
Agree with you there mate 😀
Cheers 🍻
It's a silly mistake by gwm
Yeah it looks like the new model XSR has it higher and has a bash plate from factory. Shame they didn't put on all
Why don’t you fix the red wire
Like I showed in the vid, I did try to fix it but it snapped off right in the plastic part of the sensor. I just couldn't get it to stay. Drilled it and everything to try and get some wire to solder to 😄
Bolted not bloted
What a woefully shit design.
Cent have anything hanging low in this place
Under chassis needs a proper look at.
Talk to us about the new pick up coming, you saw it and drove in it.
They asked us not too sorry 😞
But I loved it. I'd love to do a review on one but let's see how we go.
@@wheelsbytheocean cheers mate.
