Remind me to NEVER bother changing my own oil ever again! When I'd read about how hard it is to get at the oil filter I thought people were exaggerating! My arm is sooo sore from squeezing it up between the sump and the subframe. And the last person to change the oil had done the sump plug up so tight I couldn't undo it for the life of me, had to get a man to do it, even then he had to get a big bit of pipe for extra leverage!!
Might just pay someone else to do it in future! (well actually I probably won't cos I'm tight!)
