Doing the fuel filter every time should be a standard maintenance procedure, I have zero bloody idea why they don't as it's created so many issues for the dealers and owners across the bazaars.

Thought i would add that in there for anyone reading this thread, because i saw him mention he changed fuel filter 30,000km ago in one of his posts assume he does oil and filter like most every 10k why not chuck a fuel filter in aswell cheap insurance

Just as an additional comment for anyone servicing their own cars, https://www.partzonline.co.nz/ has best price on filters ive found, normally use ryco on my 4jx1 poosuzu wizard which needs 2 oil filters and 1 fuel filter

supercheap normally costs anywhere between 110 -160 for the filters partsonline normally 110 or less makes a difference if your doing 2 or 3 services a year
