Excellent information—thanks!
Has anyone found an aftermarket filter? Dealer wants $170, online prices seem to be ~$130. Given the cruddy quality of diesel here, I'm looking at annual filter changes and cringe at the OEM cost.

Your welcome.
Based on my Diesel experience for the past 15 yrs, I change out fuel filter every 20K, its cheap insurance. IMO
