Default Air Filter, Fuel Filter.........

I took the C5 in for an oil change. The car is an '02, early '02, i.e., this September it will have been on the road for four years. I have about 21K on the odo. Mr. Goodwrench recommended an air filter and fuel filter change. Any comments/experiences?

You can easily do both yourself. If you have the stock filter just check to see if it needs it. The fuel filter on my 2000 wasn't too bad. I had to jack it up to get under the car and then loose the exhaust bolts to get my hands between the pipe and the mounting location. Took about 30 minutes including clean up of tools and stuff.

i dont know about fuel filters, but i do know that the K&N filter provides really great breathing, and is easy to clean(soap and water, plus re oiling it, can buy the cleaner kit from K&n), and it lasts forever!
