The fuel pressure regulator is located in the fuel rail, held in by a torx screw.

Release pressure from the system by cranking the car with the fuel pump fuse out, or byt depressing the relief valve on the end of the fuel rail.
Unbolt the regulator/housing assembly, unhook the vacuum hose, and remove the regulator/housing assembly.

Installation is reverse order.

If you need to replace the regulator that is located in the fuel pump, it is not serviceable. Luckily they rarely fail.

    Part of the post got deleted... the fuel line on the top is removed by pressing in and pulling away from the regulator

2001 Volvo S40 petrol. With my Volvo S40 car, there is a problem with the Cooling System. Cooling tank gets empty after running.
Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to model category.

You have a leak, you just need to find it.

Look for leaks in the hoses. Do a pressure test.

The most common reasons a Volvo S40 has a coolant leak are loose hose connections, a broken radiator, or a failed water pump.

Where is the fuel filter in a Volvo S40 2005
Yes that is correct. The only filter is inside the fuel tank, and as I recall its a non exchangeable filter. It just gets replaced with the fuel pump when it goes bad
