Oil Filter

[shanice]

:) I have a GS 300 and would like to know if it is possible to change the oilfilter from the top and if so what tool do I require to remove it.

many thanks

I had to change my oil filter from underneath,couldnt really get to it from above.Use a oil filter tool the one with a chain.when youve replaced it take the EFI fuse out and turn the engine over for a few seconds to get the oil pressure up ;)

Because the filter goes on the side of the engine block you cant really pre fill the oil filter with oil.

Cheers chips.

I change mine from the top just make sure you put rags underneath it to stop the oil going everywhere or alternatively do it on the neighbours drive :D

which reminds me i must see if those nice people at prolex have some more trd ones in i could do with changing the oil
