How often should you replace the dryer for the air brakes mine is 2008 with 28000 miles also do you need to bleed all the air before unscrewing the dryer

Mine is a 2005 Inspire and I just had the dryer desicant filter changed this last November at about 50,000 miles. It had not shown any moisture when bleeding the drains but I thought it must be about time.

The Bendix tech line is a great resource. Per them the remanufactured filter is just as good as the new and cheaper. Don't forget about the purge valve when changing out the filter. Checking your drain valves for moisture is the best way to determine when it is time for a new filter; because the interval is dependent upon your driving environment.
