    Another question just wondering if most of you use your copen as a second car, I would be doing around 35 miles a day 5 days a week going to & from work so the 3000 mile oil changes are going to come around pretty quickly

    I drive Sachihiro (my Copen) every day to work and to college. I've done 2700 miles since I got him (about 5 months ago) and I am going to do an oil change as soon as my oil filter arrives in the post. (should get it next week)
    He is my only car which means I can have fun every day :D

    AFRON1, I have read the oil filter needs to be a specific size to fit, where are you ordering yours from? Google brings up Europarts bay of e and lots of other places. I was wandering if there is a preferred supplier

    I bought my filter from eu spare parts but there are multiple listed and apparently some don't fit through the gap in the engine mount. I did a little research and apparently the Herth + buss one fits well so I bought that one. It hasn't arrived yet so I can't back up any claims.

    Here's the link if you want it:
    Buy HERTH+BUSS JAKOPARTS OIL FILTER Item No.: J1316008, EAN 4029416322083 online

    Oh and this is the part number for the original oil filter: 15601-97201-000
