I took the car to get serviced today and they claim the last mechanic did the lid on the oil filter canister up so tight that they were unable to open it.
They offered to try using a breaker bar but warned there was a possibilty that the pressure could crack the canister and a replacement from Holden was worth over $600.00.
They ended up just replacing the oil and now i need to find a way to remove the lid so that i can replace the oil filter.
Has anyone ever had a cracked canister or was the mechanic just being overly cautious?
