cool

I changed the fuel pump and filter on the 2014 GLK350 at around 290k miles as a preventive measure. Just got back from a 2200 mile road trip (I had the honor to have lunch with Tom W in Auburn, In) where the car turned over 300k. I think they last longer if you never let the tank get below 1/4 full. Reason being you are not concentrating all that trash/debris into the suction filter on the pump unit. I don't have any scientific proof that this is true but I did change one that was still operating properly at 290k.
