I just passed 30k, and got to wondering about my air/fuel filters. My air filter looks clean, but I may be changing it to an Amsoil soon. My fuel filter is another story.

When did you first change your fuel filter?

air filter, just look at the filter and see. replace it every 30k miles

fuel filter- 100k or never(i think). kinda off topic here but some research or someone mentioned somewhere that toyota(denso) fuel filter should last the lifetime of the car.

I change air filter every year with napa gold.

Fuel filter says replace every 100k or when fuel pressure drops below spec.

bradmanuwf will become famous soon enough
most filters are inline somewhere, but our 7thgen might be diff. I'll have to look in my service manual and see. I remember the salesman telling me something about a carbon filter in the tank somewhere and if i "top off" the tank, it would mess it up. but he said it only costs $20 to replace. I just stop filling when it clicks the handle on the pump...lol
