thanks

It is going to take about 6 quarts of Synthetic to fill the car up. I do all my changes on a lift so I access the filter from there. It's not hard at all, pretty straight forward.

you can get to the filter without taking anything out. if all else fails you can take the battery out and with a pair of channel locks break looks the filter if its stuck. just watch out when you are under the car and taking the filter out, tends to spill a lot of oil all over your face.

I am unable to get my hand up there to even touch the filter. So I either get my 5'6" father in law, or I take out the battery. It's right there
