  • B20DTH Oil filter location 2.0 170hp engine

    hi

    i was going to change my oil today but i cannot for the life of my find the oil filter location, thought it was take off side wheel off and next to alternator but its not there. the only other place i saw was at top of engine as looking in the bonnet on left side but i dont think its that as i would assume its at the bottom half some where.

    any help guys would be appreciated.

    Take a picture of your engine----I think it could be on the top of the engine---but I could be wrong--what year is the car----Dave

          thanks, i see it there and rejected that was the oil filter based solely on its location, well i'll do the job in the morning then.

          thank you very much

            Thought it was on the top---black round filter housing with a nut type fitting on the top----normally has 25mn stamped on it--thats the torque wrench setting----Dave

                Bloody hell a vauxhall with oil filter in sensible location. Why they made the 160s such a pain in the rear to get to I never know

                  Yep. With mine I need a roller paint tray to slip in to stop the oil covering my... sub frame, drive shafts, and myself ....
