Want to change the fuel filter on my S3 2011, ordered filter which came today and went to fit but the filters clamping screw is well and truly knackered. Not sure I want to start mucking around with it until I know how to fix it. Anyone know what size it is or whether you can get a replacement or new clamp?????

Any help or other tips gratefully received.
 
just drill the old bolt out then tap the clamp and put new stainless or even better ally one so won't corrode.
