Removing oil filter housing?
« on: 23 October 2007, 23:04:44 »
Hi Guys,

How does the entire oil filter housing come off, on later models? Looks like the whole housing has to come off, to reach the oil cooler pipe nuts...

Remove the filter cover cap (24mm socket). This should only have been tightened to 15Nm so should come off easily - although be warned, they can sometimes be really tight and a nightmare to get off. Once the cover is off, the paper filter should come out with it. Inside the filter housing is a hollow bolt. This holds the housing to the block. Take this out and the jobs a goodun!  :y
