fuel filter

I bought gas ML350 2015 almost 2 yrs ago.I don't know if fuel filter has been change or not. I'm going to have oil and engine filter change oct 31 for $390 with 150 coupon any service above 300 otherwise I might change the oil myself. I'm interested to have fuel filter change also but I was quoted $1200. Mycar has 40800 miles on it.Do you think it is about time to have fuel filter change... maintenance says change vwery 40000 miles. Is 1200 reasonable?

Please check maintenance book, fuel filter at 40K intervals for diesel engines. I not sure I saw it for gas one.

WIS says the fuel tank needs to be removed to access the fuel filter.

OP owner has the gas version, this video is for diesel fuel filter, gas version has filter most likely in the tank. But I didn't see any maintenance intervals for it.

For gas models, fuel filter interval is 150K miles or 15 years.
