Did my first change today at 1300 miles. I will state for the record that I hate, hate that I can't use the mity vac on my late model BMW. And now that they stuck the filter back underneath like it's 1960 makes a bad situation worse.

The ramps work ok, but using them is a little nerve wracking. Oddly, I was able to get up them fairly smoothly, but down was pretty jerky. I've never thought the Transmission on this car was jerky like others report. But backing off smoothly was not on the cards.

The instructions were great and everything went fine. It's just messier and more trouble than our other car
