Chaps
Just doing my first “own” oil and filter change. Does anyone know the size of the socket required to remove the oil filter housing as I’ve only got a 1in size and it’s far too small

Cheers
Louie

Be careful not to over tighten it. If you crack it, that'll be £70 for a new from VW!

25nm! Or tighten it until it stops turning, then a little nudge and no more.
