why?
there are 7 or 8 bolts you have to unscrew to get the belly pan off, and remove 2 plastic push clips. Then there are 2 more clips in the rear that pop out under force.
The oil filter is a CARTRIDGE instead of screw on type, and comes with 2 separate o-rings you have to install yourself. The lower portion of the filter assembly unscrews, and then you have to take out the filter cartridge by unscrewing a 6mm hex bolt on the bottom.
Whoever thought this was a good idea instead of a screw-on type cartridge is a moron. Whoever thought this was a great idea to have people take cars to dealerships for service is brilliant. If it's the same guy, he's an autistic savant.
oh, and apparently 5w20 sae dyno oil is a buck more per quart than 5w30 of the same make.
