i think its a 32 mm socket, but im not quite sure. just take and adjustable wrench and use that. works the same way. its easier if u remove the s-pipe for the air intake though

1 -1/4 socket and at least a 6 inch extension or you will never get your hand back.

Re: Oil change ecotec 2.2

Hi you guys... thanks for your great help like always... anyhow the oil change is done and it was very easy to do... replacing the oil filter was very simple.. and the socket was a 32mm... The hardest part was tightening the drain plug... well i didnt lift the car up... just got it at the tip of my driveway.. and slid underneath, not much room but i managed... Jobs done, car goes better..

Thanks guys
