Do you change your own oil and filter? If yes easy job or what?

Tips and links or pics much appreciated.
 
Yes I do all my own servicing, it is no different to any other car. Acess is easy from underneath for the oil and filter. All service items are easy enough, just takes a bit longer to get to the front for the ploybelt and to the top for the other bits. Spark plugs are also accessible from underneath at either side.
 
You will need to have the oil filter removal tool. I know as I tried to remove it only today with no sucess. I need to find the tool from somewhere !
 
Hi which filter removal tool did you use (from Halfords ?). Ibought one of ebay that supposedly fits Porsche and VW''s and it was too tight for the Porsche. So back to searching - the official tool costs in excess of £40 !
