Hi,
Have successfully emptied the sump, cannot find oil filter holder. Not obvious like on C-Max. Can anyone enlighten me please as to where it is hiding in the engine compartment.
Its below the fuel filter on the front side of the engine. To get to it to change it you have to disconnect ,and move to one side ,the two air feed pipes to the inlet manifold from the charge cooler, & then remove the "Y" inlet pipe from the inlet manifold to get your hand in to remove & replace the filter cartridge. You will also have to disconnect & move a wire from the fuel filter and another from the "Y" piece.

It's located to teh right of the engine, below and to the left of the air filter. took me ages to find it. replace the air filter while your at it as the diesel seems to find alot if dirt.

I think you have to remove the large anti splash plastic cover under the engine to get at the filter.

Thanks,
I've looked above and below, but cannot see the plastic holder. Can anyone tell me if it is in accessable and a Ford job, or where it might be hidden from view.
