Has anyone change there oil yet? I like to change my own oil, but the location of the oil filter is really in a bad spot. It is located under the alternator towards the rear of the engine compartment. Almost impossible to get to.<br>Anyone change ther own oil? I have 1700k miles on mine and want to change it.<br>Kona ZX3 5sp

Oh yah... I change my own oil, and you gotta get it up on ramps and go under the car. I would REALLY advise getting the K&N Performance Gold oil filter. it has a 1-inch bolt welded to the top. It helps with installation and removal. Fair warning: you will need a pair of filter pliers to get the oil filter off the first time (they really crank it on good at the factory -- I don't think they lube the filter gasket, either.)
