Title: Oil filter housing loose
Post by: Tezmax on 09 June 2014, 20:04

Changed my oil and filter today but when twisting the filter off I found the housing turning with the filter :sad:

I have tightened up the visible 25mm nut and put the new filter on.
Do I take it this will be fine and dont need to worry about it?

Thanks.

as long as the nut has tightened onto the o'ring seal enough that should be fine if there is oil leakage evident then you haven't cured it  :laugh:
