I think that link was to a PDF on the old (when Joss Ellis owned it) site that Glen/Senna/AK47 did years ago. Joss' site has recently been defunked.

Cheers moley, exactly how i thought (its no different to any other car lol)

Just wondering if there is a specific torque for the sump nut and i presume the filter is just hand tight?

Can the mods delete these posts please (after i get a reply LOL)
