Replacing the fuel filter on the Priora with your own hands

The fuel filter on the Lada Priora car is made of a metal case and is not collapsible, that is, with a certain mileage of the car, it must be replaced. On the recommendation of the manufacturer, this should be done at least once every 30 kilometers.
