WAHEY!!!

N reg , willams blue, mint, 61k miles, full renault servive history and pirelle p zeros all round!!!!!!!!!

Need to change the oil and filter this saturday, any tips!???
 


Lose weight around your hands and forearms...or youre gonna lose skin getting the oil filter off/out. Apart from that, obviously use good quality oil, as if I need to say that. Straight forward job.



Good choice on chariot my friend.

You might get your arm in and get the filter off but best of luck getting back out !! a real pain, you will see why Renault charge so much to do it after you have tried.

Wont it have had its oil changed at 60K?

if the filter has a nut type thing on the end (feel around for it) use mole grips on that, makes things easier.
