My daughters relatively new car came due for its first oil chage today. 2009 Pontiac Solstice with a cartridge filter. The filter is tucked tightly at the back of the engine newr the firewall and just under the manifold. Its under the yellow dipstick handle in the pic. I had to get a suitable filter wrench and put a flex socket on the extension to get at it. But I'm set now for future changes...

Nice design eh? How about from the bottom?
It's not all that bad actually. but there was no way to get it without the filter wrench.
You ever see one of these Solstices? I think it's a great looking car. Dina seems very happy with it.
I had to look it up, and it is indeed pretty cute. Also, maybe collectable?
