I'm an impostor from the Panda section, I'm afraid. About to change the oil filter on my son's 899cc Seicento. Surprised at location of oil filter - I used to have a Cinq Sporting and knew the engine's different but hadn't realised it was that different. Had a search through the section but couldn't find the answer - do you have to take the off-side front wheel off or put the Sei up on ramps to get at the oil filter?
 
Can't see the Sei being any different to my 899 Cinq.
To get to the filter just turn the steering onto full lock and you can reach via the wheel arch.

I don't need to jack the car at all to do an oil & filter change and I have Sei Sporting suspension on it too (so lower than a std 899).

I did wonder if full left (or right?) lock would do the trick. Thanks very much.
