Hi there , has anyone changed their oil filter on their t jet ?? Just wondered if it was a tricky job , looks like its prob best to do from underneath , thanks , Dave

Anyone ???

It's a nightmare to do, I tried to do it and failed miserably as it is in such an awkward spot. I ended up taking it to my local garage purely for that, if you can see where it is, you will see what i mean.

I've managed it, but **** is it awkward. Make sure you have the right size tool before starting otherwise it makes an already difficult job almost impossible.

Yeah. The housing comes off and the new filter clips in.

When I had mine I had the dealer service it and even then the technician took about 1hr to change the oil filter and much swearing! Good luck with yours.

I've had a look today at how I'm going to get to it , I removed the plastic pipe from the air box to the slam panel , unclipped the header tank hose off the back of the rad and unclipped the sensor with pipes off the rad and I got fairly clear access to remove it , I'm going to try taking the filter out on Thursday , I'll keep you informed lol , thanks again for your replies
