When was the last time you guys changed the fuel filter?

I had amazing gas mileage until i changed to a new fuel filter after 6 years. Now the car pulls and runs smoother but eats more gas.

ASR= Acceration Slip Regulation. Traction control by a different name. It wa the most obnoxious aspect about my C36, now it's just the LSD.
