Changing haldex oil and filter

[barters3]

Hi,
I am thinking about having a go at changing the haldex oil and filter myself.
Firstly is it an 'easy' job?
Also will i just need 1x filter, 1xtube of oil and the removal tool?
Any advice would be apreciated.

Thanks mate, great help. Do you have access to a lift or pit as i dont, will this make it a bit difficult?

I do yeah, but you could do it on your back if you wanted. Get the car as high up as possible and I don't see why you couldn't.

thanks for the advice i might get the bits and get the car jacked up and see how much room iv got before i make a start.

i did mine on a set of ramps, you can get a tool for 10 quid off ebay to get the filter off. I posted something about this a while back when i did mine
