Where is the fuel filter located on a 2014 passat 1.8T it's not by the rear passenger wheel I removed the plastic dust covers and followed the fuel lines into the engine bay still no filter everything I have found shows the filter by the rear wheel I found the quick connect clips but no filter they just connect to the fuel lines could it be possible someone bypassed the filter for some reason?

I do not know the answer to your question but most fuel filters are now located in the fuel tank. Most are lifetime and no longer are part of the maintenance schedule. Some are now part of the fuel tank so whey they go bad, the tank gets replaced.

It's what the people want with cleaner air. If you think it's bad now, just wait, more stuff like this is coming your way.
