Oil change

[peenee]

I have a 93 n/a mr2 and today decided to change the oil and filter, as ive only owned the car for 4 weeks, everything was going fine untill i had to remove the old filter once i had finally located it there was no way i could remove it, as for the position of it i could get my hand around it but no leverage as too smaller area, and as for access from underneath the car no way, so has anyone else had the same problem, if so any ideas on how to get the bloody thing off.

hmm you can get to all the screws on the door apart from the front one iirc!! might need a stubby screwdriver to get the ones at the bottom! might be enough for you 2 get in and have a look
Edit* is your door locked or unlocked??
