Thanks, I actually found a pdf online in the end for its location and procedure to change. I've attached it for anyone that has the same issue. Was pretty simple but not a lot of room when your car is on jack stands.

 

Hi - just interested in whether this fixed your fuel spurting issue when you fill up? I am having this issue too and have found the charcoal canister but it seems like a sealed unit so if I buy I new one I wanted to make sure it fixes the problem. Thanks

 

Hi, yes it fixed my issue straight away. I think I paid £60 to to £70 for mine

 

Thanks heaps - looks like I will do the same. Did you buy a brand new one or a used one? Appreciate your help.
