A quick mid year service about an 1.5 hours ( Less if I used a vacuum pump on the oil)

A pain in the A$$, but needed to remove the entire under protector. This was the longest part of the service. I recommned have a few Metal Fastener Clips spare

Pan in situ

remove plug/bolt - bottom off side at the rear - quite easy to open. It's got no O-Ring and its recommended to change the plug/bolt - tightened to Torque: 23 Nm

Ensure engine has been running beforehand to warm up the old and left to cool a bit. Caution - can be hot

Loosen oil filter a few turns

and let it drain away for a while.****** I did end up dropping the passenger side on the jack, but this will affect your refill amount - I don't think this the usual though


in the meantime - Air Filter change


T25 or 30 I seem to remember, Long extension

screws stayed in after I loosened them, a little tight but able to wiggle it out

fairly clean, but a quick vacuum and blow to make sure

New filter fitting snug inside the lip


back to oil, unscrew filter

at this stage, I like to drop down a few capfuls of oil in the filter cup to clean it a bit

remove old filter

swap them out.

new O-Ring in the pack and replaced on the oil cap. Hand tighten back into place Torque: 27 Nm

mine was 6.25 litres to refill as a service fill.
