Unfortunately; you're going to have to pull a lot of plastic off. Start with side panels, then left & right lower side panels; there is one 10mm bolt at the bottom and 4 (i think) push retainers holding the lower panels on. Once those those lower panels are off, the 4 push retainers of the belly pan; should be accessible.

When changing oil, remember to remove that little bolt at front of engine to drain another 250ml.

If you have your manual there is a great step by step section. Any tips just take your time and give your self a few hours. It does take some time. Good luck.

Just wondering the manual calls for 3.2 litres with a filter change which I have done, but I am just showing down at the low or bottom of the marker on the dipstick...is this normal...I have put 3.2 litres in the machine

Normal I don't know but it was the same for me. I started there then added till it was full on the dipstick or just a bit under full.

Yeah I was thinking about doing that but I am afraid I will overfill it and that is just as bad as having low oil..would appreciate hearing from others who have seen this and what they did about it....thanks

If u overfill it just drain a bit out, no big deal. Actually had to do that too. Now shes right on the money

Due to these units being a "dry sump" type, over filling is not as bad as you think. The pump only pulls enough to fill the gallery and and lower end. It's not like a wet sump where it could over pressure your system and blow out seals. But of course it's better to run it at the nominal level for expansion etc..
