Agree---but what it "should' be and reality is often different as I suspect a lot of members have found out about lots of things that they have to unscrew, unplug, remove etc..This is especially so when previous servicing was by a dealer. I reckon they all keep a gorilla out the back just to screw things on. Altho' it probably wouldn't apply to the oil filter i guess its just easier to seriously tighten things under a hoist than to undo them crawling around underneath the disco at home.

This was a handy piece of input from Fluids. See reply #3.

Have a squizz and see what you reckon you're capable of getting done.
