Engine oil filter

[stowei]

Before I start removing sump-guard etc for my first oil & filter change, please can someone advise whether I'm likely to find that one of my oil filter 'sockets' is likely to fit (I have a standard car-size one and a smaller Japanese bike one).

Also, am I likely to be able to get a replacement filter at Halfords? (No BM bike shop close by.)

Finally, any surprises in store?

Thanks

Same filter tool as a used on most volkswagens

Seems to sum up the oil filter wrench size
