Hello Toast.

No, did not have to clean prefilter yet. Checked it after last year Albania trip and petrol was still running through without a problem. Although mine has turned dark as well, but so far it does not limit fuel flow.
How many miles/kilometres your OEM pump survived with Profill Australia prefilter and which part of the world do you use fuel from?

In reply to John Gravel. Hi John. I can only imagine how quickly it can be done in your car ? Well, as for my KTM it takes a little bit more time but also brings fun in a process, as long as you like to fiddle with it (like I do ?)

Luckily the fuel filter on my 2007 Volvo XC90 is a 5-minute job. You detach the fuel lines by simply pressing down on clips. No need for tools

Thanks for the write up! I did similar filter mods myself on the 690 before our Mongolia trip some years ago. Now my OEM pump is dying, and the prefilter has turned dark. Have you managed to get your HUS03 profill prefilter cleaned?
