    Default Location of oil filter VY SS Gen 3: 5.7l v8

    Where is the oil filter located on the VY SS v8 model?

    Any other suggestions about changing the engine oil and oil filter are welcome.

    thanks.

    its been posted here before, but its on the bottom of the sump, the sump plug is on the drivers side of the sump and the oil filter faces down on the l/h side of the sump, as soon as you take the under tray off you'll see it, and they take 5.7-6ltrs of engine oil.

    i use only Holden Genuine and its basiclly the same price as after market. the sump plug has an o'ring washer and is a 15mm sump plug.

    hope that helps a bit.

    I answered you here: How to Change the Oil in a VT/VX

    To make it clearer:


    On the left is the sump plug, on the right is the oil filter. Just get under the car and you can't miss it.
