As per title, where is it and what's the interval for renewing?

Thanks.

That's the one , the new ones are black plastic when you change it squeeze the green bits in on the plug which clips on to the filter .

Don't know the service interval on them but I changed mine around 70k they don't cost a lot and no time in fitting a new one

Mar172 Thanks for the info

I'd change them every 30k
They cost pennies .
