Our HCHII doesn't have a replacement fuel filter?

aarong_hch · 11-10-2009, 05:06 PM

I went to the dealer to go get a replacement fuel filter and they said that we cannot replace it. WTH? Won;t we get bad MPG later on...say 10 yrs from now? Please voice your opinions.

fuel filter?? last time i heard honda using fuel filter was on b series engine... i thought honda stopped using fuel filter... instead there are filtering system in the fuel injector and in the fuel tank itself.

It's probably in the fuel tank, like the R18s.

Filter set, fuel 17048-SNC-L01
$59.98 on Honda E-Store

I believe there's another filter at the end of the fuel pump but I don't think you can get it separately.

I was looking at replacing mine, but at 115,000 miles I have not had any issues at all. Plus, it looks like a real pain to get to. I have a 2006 HCHII
