Call me stupid, but does any one know how to remove the oil filter on the 2.8 V6 galaxy ???

 

I Have removed the allen Bolt at the bottom, but how do you get the canister off, to replace the paper element?

 

Dont want to force it, because knowing my look ill break the damn thing.

 

Thanks in advance ..

It's plastic, I wouldn't if I were you!

 

A strap wrench might be better, but I've always managed to get mine off with the allen key, it just turns very slow because of the O ring.

now I think about it, it was a 36mm hex socket.
