Oil Filter Tool

[davekp]

What do you use to remove the oil filter on the 4-cylinder? Looks like a crow's foot is the only thing that fits.

I didn't find one at NAPA, but I did find one at Sturdevants. it is called the "GM Eco oil filter cap wrench"

Oil changes have never been so easy, I love it.

I think it was the same thing for the inlaws HHR. But I thought we just used a socket to get it off.

Hopefully that tool will set you straight.

I change the neighbors Cobalt's oil and you can't get a regular socket on it, not enough clearance. This looks like it might provide that. I might have to pick one of these up.

Maybe we used I wrench... Who knows... It was a long time...

After we took the HHR off the ramps my father in law marked the ramps with tape.. Later to find that it would only work with his vehicle since the Nox is wider.

I just purchased a 2011 Camry SE, 4 cyl. The recommended oil change interval is 10k. This Lisle tool should be available or at least easy to order at your local auto parts store.It is actually less mess than a spin on filter. If you are making a mess, you are doing it wrong and over complicating it.
