Very simple, but its worth buying a replacement water sensor in case it breaks in the filter as you either remove it or fit it to the new filter (guess how I know that one!).

Access the filter under the rear wing by removing the cover, then unscrewing and replacing as per any other filter. To bleed the system, switch the ignition on about 5-6 times leaving it on each time until the pump stops, then start as normal.

The filter only needs changed every 24,000miles.
