Now that you mention it I think the fuel filter was changed when my mechanic changed the transmission oil, engine oil and a new air filter.

Just why woudn't it be detected on my mechanics diagnostic? Also after changing the pressure sensor and temperature sensor, the "Engine System Service Urgent" message no longer appears either.

Yea the fuel filter had been changed to a new one. Just checked.
