Where is the oil filter

[Captaincook 0]

Can some one confirm where the oil filter is and how do you change it, I have bought the filter, it looks like it just sits inside the housing in front of the engine.

 

Is it hard to change?

 

Thanks im new to corrados and its a VR6

it does in deed sit in the big housing on the front of the engine.

 

have fun trying to remove the cap on the bottom to get it out....

Did you get the right filter? Part number should end 561 A

 

Don't over-tighten the cap when you put it back otherwise they tend to break when you try and get them off again!

I hope its the right filter, i'll have a check on the part number,

 

Ive never seen a filter like that, looks like it just sits in the housing.
