This sounds like the same issue that inroads posted about over on ADVRider, his in tank fuel strainer disintegrated too.
I will probably be draining and checking this on my 2015 RX3; it is getting close to valve check time, being over 17,000 miles and I haven't checked them since around the 12,000 mile mark. I haven't been riding it much since I got the RX4, but the battery is kept charged and I cycle the ignition key on once or twice a week to cycle the fuel pump. I will probably just replace the fuel strainer with one from another vehicle that matches the inlet diameter on the fuel pump. I currently have a Denso strainer that I am going to try; if it fits, I will post up the part number here for everyone.
