Hello Everyone,
I am trying to do my first oil change on a 2018 XUV 865 diesel....where is the darn oil filter?

Curious which portion of the dual sized cap wrench is being used for this filter. Is it 65mm or 68mm?I use the Mobil 1 M1-108A filters. You'll need a 65-68mm cap wrench. Make sure the cap wrench will actually grab. They tend not to grab as much as I'd like. Check out a Lisle 63600 Oil Filter Removal Tool.
did my first filter change on a 885d using a NAPA filter wrench made by Carlisle, part # 63600 - maybe the same tool as the Lisle mentioned in an earlier post. Had a 850D for 10 years and the filter wrench that I used was a JD 65 - 68 mm cap type that fit very tight, too tight a clearance for the 855D. the Carlisle tool worked well - less than $15 and made in USA - as you can only get short strokes until it is loose enough for just your hand. I started with a 3/8 breaker bar and could get the filter to move then to an adapted 1/4" breaker bar that allowed for more room and longer strokes. the new filter went on easily. go in from the right side, removing the rear wheel will help if your big and tie up the mud flap it can be annoying...go slow with it and good luckThe 65-68 is a tapered cap which means it sits deepest on the small end. It also has a tendency to pop off. With the tight space, I just use the Lisle tool. I really grabs the filter around the body well. Never slips and a bit more easy to get the socket head on.
