I suggest you purchase the plastic trim removal tool as shown in the video (much better than using pliers, etc.), remove the filter and take a picture of the part number. You can then hunt down the same filter as Audi or OEM part at a good saving.
But why hunt down a 3rd party filter? I stand by my advice I already gave you above (and other members did as well), get the proper tools (so you don't break anything, pull the filter, mark the part no. which is 85E819439B and get it from Audi for half (or whatever Porsche tax is today). You're driving a cooler Q6 e-tron (much to the dismay of forum members).

Because it appears in Canada, Q6 e-tron parts are not available. And Sergey said third party filters are better? But at this point I will take whatever I can get. I'd even consider buying it from Porsche themselves if they would allow me to buy the part by itself. They keep giving me a quote for labour with it. I'm like, I don't want labour, I just want the part!

How will you update the app once you’ve changed the filter?

I’ll just tell them I changed the filter and ask them to reset it. It won’t take more than a minute for them to reset. If they refuse to reset, then we will have a problem and I will complain 🤣
