Can anyone tell me the replacement steps for the fuel filter and fuel tank air filter for a 2008 Santa Fe AWD 3.3L? Thank you.

I called a couple auto part stores for the part and it appears it is a "non-serviceable" dealer-only item. I contacted the dealer and they do not recommend changing it unless it is bad. It appears that Hyundai shouldn't list the part in its service schedule.
Thank you, I appreciate the timely response.

My original reply said don't worry about either 'till 100K miles but I changed my reply after checking the 2008 SF owners manual and seeing that it said replace at 60k. I think that's just Hyundai corp being cautious. I agree with the dealer, if there is no problem, don't touch them.
