fuel filter change?
I didn't find anything in the owners manual for when to change the fuel filter. I saw in an MDX review that it has a lifetime fuel filter and I'm figureing the TSX has the same filter. Am I right?

I think alot of this is just marketing crap along with the extended maintenance intervals. I means a fuel filter is just a fuel filter right? If i had to change it in my 85 camry I don't see why it wouldn't get dirty in my tsx....

The problem is the location. I don't know where it is on the TSX but on some cars it's in a really difficult place to get at. So replacing it isn't so simple. My gf protege had the oil filter in a place that unless I moved the engine out of the way, I couldn't get a hold of it.

"lifetime" fuel filters?
Next thing they'll be advertising is "lifetime" oil filters.
How can a filter be lifetime, unless the stuff being filtered is pure (i.e. clean)? Is pump gas guaranteed to be 100% "clean" for the lifetime of your car?
