Default Fuel filter ???

Guy roughly how long should a fuel filter last before it need changing?
The reason I ask is my car as all of a sudden got a stutter between 2-3000rpm and the only thing I can think of it that has got a bit clogged up cause my old 106gti had the same problem and it was that
Thanks in advance

The plugs are less than 1500 miles old so I wouldn't think it was them
