For 5 litres for £14 thats a bargin when ive had oil changes done in the past and ive gone to check my oil to see if its needs topping up not once have i had to top it up lol ive had a bottle of oil for about 2 years nearly lol another thing i would like to point outside my house it not exsacliy level but not on a big slope if you get what i mean does this matter it is level but when i take my foot of the brake my car does roll back a tiny bit but not that much.

ha, swap you - mine needs topping up half a litre every week nearly. i do 400 miles a week so i suppose its not that bad and its not getting any worse so f*ck it lol. looking to get a new car soon anyway.

it is quite important that you do the oil on a level surface, if its a tiny amount i wouldnt worry but if it is a bit of a slope then personally i would get the jack and axle stands out and level it.

i wouldnt worry then, the bit where i do my car is like that too. although i emptied the boot of my car one day and stupidly put the spare wheel on the ground standing up. i turned round a minute later, where the f%ck has my wheel went? it had rolled down the hill lmao :lol: dafty.

from eurocarparts - £16.76 you can have the oil and filter at your door

yeah, eurocarparts are brilliant. if they havent got what your looking for they can usually get it for you next day.

this is similar to what i use most of the time - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Belt-oil-filter-wrench-strap-small-65-110mm-BOHID_W0QQitemZ140400849879QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Hand_Tools_Equipment?hash=item20b08af3d7

if you want to save a few quid on that, you could always stick a screwdriver through the filter, not recommended though :lol:
