Default Fuel Filter

When I change out the fuel filter, do I replace the o rings? This is my first fuel filter change, and i am about to go to the jaguar dealer to buy the filter which is 2 hours away, do i buy the o rings? or do they come with it?

Why? It's the same filter as used on many Chev vehicles.

Example, 2001 Chev Suburban if it helps to do the lookup.

Had fun with the last "smart" parts dude who claimed
"I guess we don't stock that number because it isn't a popular vehicle".

... umm ... just about every full size GM truck/van/suv in the last
couple of decades.

I also just ask for a fuel filter for my 1988 Chevy Truck. I get 2, one for the XJ8 and one for the Chevy.

Jaguar recommends fuel filter replacement every 60K miles for the X308.
Here is a Vehicle Maintenance Checklist for 2000MY Jaguars.

Ask for an ACDelco GF652 fuel filter. It fits over 4,000 different models (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/co...=0&vehicleId=7), it's a really common filter.
