Just changed my oil and filter, and have just seen the warning in the haynes manual about not over tightening the filter.
May I just ask, what are the issues with this, as I used the crows foot tool to nip it up so it's on a bit tighter than finger tight, but as the crows foot was ill fitting it's bent the filter casing slightly.
Worth replacing again for peace of mind or should it be ok?
If it did need replacing, i assume its a full oil out job etc. again!
Sorry for what may seem like a trivial issue, I just have an ocd about this sort of thing!!!! (and it was my first full oil/filter change in a long long time)
