for some reason I have not seen mine and at 97k should be planning to replace it.

Thank you!
I believe for the 987 they integrated the filter with the fuel pump/sender unit. Starting in 2002, Porsche moved the filter to inside the gas tank, and called it a "lifetime" filter that never needs to be changed. This and more info can be found at our DIY article I linked below.

The fuel filter is integral in the tank unit and no longer requires changing. A reduction in deliver rate can be detected via the mixture adaption.
Anyone needing a step by step on the replacement for the 986 and wanting more info can check out our article here: Porsche Boxster Fuel Filter Replacement | 986 / 987 (1997-08) | Pelican Parts Technical Article
