sp8s 1 Report post Posted July 19, 2010 I understand there is a special tool that is used to loosen the oil filter housing on the M44. Where can I get one - good quality special price. also is a generic oil filter as good as an OEM or should I get one from Gavin and what brand/type of oil should i use. Will get oil local (Repco or Supercheap) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ours are genuine, but you might be able to buy one from a specialist tool supplier like Sulco Tools. I don't know what companies you have down there in Timaru though. You could carefully use a set pf polley grips but dont squeeze too hard the top is made of plastic. You could try asking a local garage who they use for specialist tools. also is a generic oil filter as good as an OEM or should I get one from Gavin We only use genuine, a well branded oil filter like Ryco would be fine to use and what brand/type of oil should i use. A 15w40 standard or semi synthetic oil is fine for a M44 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
