[QUOTE=Padgett;882524][SIZE=2]Just changed the oil and reset the FSS myself. Always had dealer do before. Found some interesting things.

1) belly pan was completely dry
2) gorilla had tightened the oil pan bolt, thought seized at first. Why ?
3) 10 qts of Mobil 1 "European" 0W-40 was $50. Have some extra but never needed any. Was cheaper than 4 1qt bottles.
4) MANN "metal free" filter HU718/5x - anyone know what the "x" means.
5) Had to be careful to get the four different sized O rings on the oil filter cap thingie. Had one medium sized O ring left over.


I believe the extra O ring goes between the filter stalk and the metal filter cap. They're almost always left over because the stalk and the cap are rarely separated, although they can be.
I did my last oil change with an extractor pulling it out of the dipstick tube. No belly pan, no gorilla-fitted drain plug. Easy.
