How often do you change your fuel filter ? (this is on a 97 sc400)

I usually change my fuel filters every 30,000 miles on my vehicles, but I just recently had the 60,000 miles service done on my sc 400 at a lexus dealership and they told me the fuel filter rarely if ever needed changing anyone ever heard of this ? They also informed me they don't even stock them since they rarely change them but would gladly get me one but didn't recommend changing it, his exact words was it doesn't need changing but if you want to spend the money we'll be glad to do it for you.

 

I change mine every 30k or so. Peace of mind is a wonderful thing.

 

how much did you guys buy the fuel filters for? they charged me 57 bucks for mine~!

 

I thought it was 30 bucks at Carson...

they charged 50+tax at my local dealership

 

Changed mine at 58,000 miles, bought it at Discount Auto Parts store for $9.99 changed it myself in about a half hour for cost of one beer and one ata boy!
