[quote=svelte]I’m not sure how this keeps you from crawling under the car – don’t you still have to change the oil filter?
I stopped changing my oil long ago. Doesn’t cost that much more to have the shop do it.

A lot of the newer car, the filter is a canister type that is accessed from on top of the engine bay. Most 6 cylinder BMW engines are like that these days. The 8 cylinder is usually at the bottom, since there’s no room on top.
