Hi guys this may sound a bit daft but i have just bought a really nice td5 and im well pleased with it, it has a good service history but its time for a medium service that i would like to do myself,so i have got a new upgrade air filter upgrade discs and pads oil and filters and new sump plug and diesel filter all of which are simple enough oh and pollen filter, my question is where do i find the small round oil filter i have only had a quick look under the bonnet but didnt see it will it become clear when i remove the engine covers etc.

Or drill clearance and use nut/bolt combo.
