<< <E30> Messy Oil Change >>
Speaking of messy E30 oil changes, has BMW moved the oil filter to other than
the most retarded place you could possibly put it like they did on the M20
engines? 

Just love reaching between those hot exhaust manifolds (of course always
change the oil with the motor hot...) to get at the oil filter. Final solution
was a pair of heavy welder's gloves.

Neatest oil filter arrangement i've ever seen was on my old w123 300 Diesel
(yea i know but i used to get the fuel free...) mercedes. Nice upright
container right on the fire-wall. I could change the oil in that thing in a
coat and tie...

Does anyone make a nice kit to move the filter on an M20 325i? Anyone
installed one?
