DIY VERY EASY

This is so easy like Clem said. Oil filter element is at the front of the engine on the top side. Open your hood and it's right there... look for the metal cannister.

On the 328 it's a black plastic filter canister. You will need a 36mm socket to get if off without damaging it.

Very simple.....

can anyone tell me how much oil i need to put in...i'm thinking 6 litres :dunno:

[Police]

put 4L in first, CHECK the dip stick cause thats what its there for and if you're off by alot keep adding till you're at full and then start your car to fill the filter up with oil. Let it run for like 10 seconds or until you oil light turns off. I like to give it a minute or so after i start the car to let all the oil drain back down to the pan, then you check and add oil till you hit the full mark again.:thumbsup:

You need 6.5L of oil. Please do NOT start your car after only adding 4L. Please!! If you are unsure of the measurement, 6L is fine, then top up if you desire.

do you buy the oil and do it yourself or do you go to a shop and get it done?
