    Hi desq . Its a canister type oil filter located on the left side under the turbo . you need a 1/2'' drive breaker bar with a small extension only . There is a small drip tray already underneath the filter to catch the oil as you take it off . repco or bursons are your friends when it comes to filter replacement . If you have dual batteries its a PITA , not much room. Lefty loosey , Righty tighty .
    The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .

    Remember to put a small tray under the end on the hose on the drip tray though otherwise you will have a small puddle of oil on the ground. ..
