I just wanted to compare it to the Mahle aftermarket one I bought last year and to be honest, if there is a difference, I couldn't spot it. The N57 filter is double the price of N47's, so they're still in the £35-£40 region in the aftermarket. |

Was going to tackle the oil & filter change today, but discovered I don’t have 27mm socket for the oil filter cap!
So have to postpone until tomorrow (ordered one from amazon).

Air filter done.
Just doing the oil change now. Suction pump has taken out about 4 litres of old oil so far. That was an hour ago and and flow seems to be slowing right down now. Is that normal? Edit: gave it a few more pumps of the handle & it started drawing a bit faster.

For me that's just up a bit of national speed limit country lanes, back on myself, down the bypass and back home... That's it hot enough then for an oil change; otherwise it's like trying to suck molasses through a drinking straw

Half hour minimum for me before doing the suction. Diesels take aaaaaaaages to warm up
Sometimes the suction tube can bottom out on the oil pan like a drinking straw does in a glass, which also restricts the flow. I push it in until I feel it bottom out, then pull it up a few mm. |
