A new one should be yellow or beige I guess...

Wow. Guess I should look to find mine and just reprice it. Got 20K on my 14 RT. Probably need to change the air filer at the same time.

I will have it check on both. Going on 27K on each with no changes. Thanks for posting about it.

Maintenance manual for 2008-2012 Roadster

The Maintenance Manual says it should be replaced every 19000mi (30000km) or every 5 years which ever comes first.

So you should keep the same fuel filter for another 72 000 miles!......no I'm just kidding! Any kind of filter needs to be changed, even if you put the top shelf gas or oil...it's called maintenance

The type of gas and frequency of oil filter changes are really meaningless ..... Where you get your gas and how well they Maintain there FILTERS is the KEY ...... and there's no way of knowing this ...... well there is , your filter gets clogged and it causes engine issues :banghead::banghead: ....
