stewy Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 Afternoon chaps, I'm about to service my old Gal (the car not the wife!) and don't actually know where the oil filter is. Haynes don't release the relevant manual until May 2012 and its due some clean oil and a filter now. Please can someone let me know where it is - I bet it on the back side of the engine under a sump cover or something. Is it easy to reach - the one on my Mondeo was a b@gger to access but then I do have hands the size of shovels!. thanks for any advice, Stew Quote
sparky Paul Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 (edited) It's a bit fiddly, but it's down the back below the inlet manifold, and accessible from the top. I stuff a rag below the oil filter before unscrewing, to catch the oil that would otherwise drop onto the exhaust. Edited March 28, 2012 by sparky Paul Quote
