i just had my car diesel fuel filter changed and the cars now lost all power cant pick up at all.
I called the garage and they said it could be sonething else but before this was fine I only changed it as im.selling the car and thought I should do this before sale.
Am i right.in thinking its the garage mistake in something to cause this?
My father says there could be air trapped but i really have no clue and need to sort this before selling.

Take it back and show them. Let them sort it. You really should have turned around instantly and got them to rectify any issues.

No. The fuel filter on a 1.4 HDi should be replaced as a complete unit. £43+VAT from peugeot.

As lee said you should replace the housing, they probably replaced the filter element and damaged the housing somehow
