When to replace fuel filter?

Anyone knows when to replace TL's fuel filter (miles or age)? There is some kind of noise coming from under rear left passenger seat. When I lied down and looked at it, it seems to be fuel pump or something. Is the fuel filter housed here or under the hood?

Fuel pump is in the gas tank. Does not need to be replaced.

No filter to replace. The noise you here is most likely the Evap canister. Its a somewhat normal sound on the TL, especially now that its colder where you live. If it really bothers you, You can replace it for 61.00

Thanks, Kris. Does the canister ever get clogged up? Just curious. I now feel much better knowing that there is nothing to worry about the fuel filter. I had to replace fuel filters on other cars I own.
