Napa sells a good quality 76mm 14-flute that doesn't fit at ALL. (I ended up wrapping the filter in blue tape, then tapping the wrench onto the bottom to get it off, so I'm doubtful that the Pep Boys 76 would work. I'll try the 74mm...

I bought one from Pelican Parts. You can tighten it with a socket wrench/torque wrench. Works well.

Automobile Atlanta sells the cap for $15 or the tool for $37 so plus shipping. Just go to the site and search il filter wrench" and scroll down the resulting page to see your choices.

If I said 5y ago that it works, that means that it did work. I don't lie on my experiences s#it!! :troll:

I sold my Porsche 09 which is the reason I stopped posting (here and other forums too).

Take care
