0 andyb2000 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Hi,Same 2.8CRD here.It's fairly easy to get at, easiest to take the wheel off whilst you've got it up on jack stands and you can then reach in and get your removal tool in to get it spun off.Makes a bit of mess as it's around part of the structure but get a big catch pan ready and you'll be fine.

0 Jumberly Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Thanks Andy.....Took me 20mins to find the bloody thing. Nice that the bottom protective tray has a cut out so you can reach the sump...but you still have to take the bloody thing off to find the filter. Is there a family car out there with a crappier design for the oil filter. Answers on a postcard please. andyb2000 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
