Default Fuel filter

Even though my es330 has only 58k miles on it, but it is a 16 year old vehicle. Should i change out the fuel filter?

There is no conventional filter to change there is a strainer as part of the fuel pump not considered as part of normal maintenance.

so what you saying is that the filter assembly (see picture) does not have to be changed? How about the strainer that you were talking about? At what mileage/year does it need to be changed?

There is no specific maintenance schedule for the filter sock, can change it if you like or you're having a problem related to it.

no issues at all. But it is a 16 year old vehicle and there are no records of service history that all
