fuel filter

I heard it's a good idea to change out your fuel filter. I really doubt mine's ever been changed and I have 55K miles on my car. where's the filter at and how easy is it to change?

just behind the driver side door under the car, it's an in-line style. easy to do it looks like a silver can.

it is on the drivers side next to where your rear lower control arm mounts to the body. you will need some needle nose pliers and a 16 and 20 mm wrench. its not har to change

Easy and cheap, It wouldnt hurt to change, you may only have 55k on the car but it has 7 years of build up.

I used the fram one from wal-mart and no problems. I change mine every year though.

I just changed mine, got a gold one from NAPA. was pretty easy to do, just make sure you let the pressure out of the system, unless you don't mind a little gas spray when you first start disconnecting it.
