30,000 miles is what I've heard.

Nope--much easier than my wife's ovloV 240, for instance, whose fuel
filter is under the car near the rear axle. You may want to have
flare-nut wrenches for the fittings, which are at a considerably torque.
Just allow the car to sit overnight beforehand (or longer) to allow the
fuel pressure to fall.
