    Well by the time you get a full oil filter on a 300TDi it will be half empty anyway, I put enough oil in the filter to soak the paper element and do what Dave suggested I remove the fuel cut off solenoid wire and build up oil pressure first, never a problem, when the engine starts I run it for a minute, stop and check oil level and top up as necessary, Regards Frank.

    Not if you use a filter with decent (synthetic, not paper) media that flows well
