While Im at it, a totally off topic question....is there any sort of a particular oil filter wrench required for me to removed the plastic filter cup on my boxster?? I have seen a couple different ones advertised on ebay but Im hoping that one of the standard jobbies from a parts store might do??

Once again thanks for the help!

Hi,

There are several on the Market. The thing to remember is that it needs to be 74mm and have 14 flutes or sides. The Filter s/b Hand Tightened, so I just use a strap wrench, works great. The last thing I need is another job-specific tool in my already overflowing Tool Chests. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
