X type diesel oil filter

How do I remove the oil filter on my X type Jaguar diesel
is there a special spanner-or do you undo it by hand

  • Anonymous Apr 20, 2009

    I have a strap type oil filter tool

    will that do?

    Is the filter a trow away cartridge or a paper element

    and do you undo the big nut at the bottom

Hi, the oil filter is a paper element item in a plastic housing, under the car on the front RHS of the engine. You need a end cap filter wrench to undo it. I've tried a set i borrowed and couldn't find one to fit. I had to make a tool in the end by taking a bolt with a head to match the hex shaped piece at the bottom of the housing and wleded bits of flat steel to it. You could use a correctly sized socket (24-26mm?) but be careful not to break it!! Also make sure you locate the O-ring for the filter correctly.
Regards,
Dave

    is anyone sure about the bolt size. i tried a 32 mm socket on 2004 2.0 diesel and it was not big enough

    I changed the filter today. You should use a 36 mm socket.

How do i remove the oil filter on 2009 jaguar xf

To remove the oil filter on a diesel you remove the cover from the top of the engine and you should see a plastic cylinder in the centre of the engine with a 30mm hex nut moulded on to the top of it. Simply unsrew it and pull the filter out.

Petrol engine you remove the undertray of the underside and you should see a white metal filter by the sump. Unscrew

Hi.
The fuel filter is located behind the front left wheel.

jag-you-are would prefer that you take your car to one of their service centers!! probably has an internal filter element that needs special equip. to access and change out.lot of high end cars have that type of filter now. my brothers mercedes mid-1990s doesn't even have a tranny dip-stick! need special tools to check level! hard to be a 'shade-tree' mechanic anymore!
good luck!
