Just make sure you have a strap wrench or similar. I had a oil filter removal tool that I used on my previous car but it didn't work on the Triton cause the filter diameter is smaller so the tool couldn't grap the filter.

I rang them to check if this was correct and they said yes it was correct and it is a low sap for the DPF. When I enquired why they don’t use a 5w-30 as per the manual they replied with that viscosity is better for our weather conditions. I have used Penrite for years and did a 7,500k oil change with DL-1 which I was happy with and did not use any oil. I don’t think I’m comfortable with their choose of oil, it must be cheap.

Castrol Edge Diesel DPF Engine Oil - 5W-30 LL I'm not sure the difference between the earlier linked Castrol Synth DX 5w-40 other than weight. They're both ACEA C3 and DPF approved.
