...off to enjoy the great Montana hwys!!

Had the filter ever been changed before (I ask sheepishly w/62k miles on the odo and a 2500 mile drive staring me in the face in December)?

We (believe we) replaced the original fuel filter in Bozeman. The X had about 96K on it at that time (99K + now). I 'heard' BMW does not recommend replacing them until 100K miles(?). If so, I guess I was due, but 100K seems like way too long of an interval to me for such an important link in the fuel delivery system.
