Tiida Oil Change

 See this other post where I worked out how much oil and what type I needed.

Avoided using the jack.  Using bricks from under the house.

Checked the existing level.  It was just below min.

Drained most of the oil.  Because the driveway sloped toward the front, when the car was on blocks, it was pretty horizontal.  So some old oil would be left behind.

I watched a couple of youtube videos that showed that access to the oil filter was tough.  Decided to follow advice and simply remove the bolts to allow access through the splash plate.

Used a gripping tool to remove and then tighten the new new filter.
