I would like to know how to remove & refit the oil filter on my 1600cc C4 the filter is a type I have never used before it it is not the old type metal canister screw on type. The filter housing appears to be made of plastic and the new filter I have is a new paper type filter that fits inside the plastic housing. the housing doesn't appear to have any clips holding it on and I am unsure how to remove it so I can change it.

Many thanks
Andrew

your local library should be able to supply a manual for the vehicle .. it is a simple repair there should be a bolt straight down the middle of the filter housing !!
