Hi All,

I have searched but couldnt find what i was looking for so please dont get mad

I am going to perform an oil change on my cousins 2003 VW Bora VR6 and i am confusedabout the oil filter socket size. I have read so many conflicting forums and im losing my mind.

Could any of you please confirm whether or not i need a 32mm or 36mm oil filter socket?
Also, do i need to remove the bolt inside the oil filter socket? If so, is that a 9mm allen key?

Sorry about all the questions people. I wont see the car until the weekend so I would like to be prepared.

One FINAL question...........if it is the 36mm socket for the oil filter.........is there anwhere I can buy it locally (Melbourne) or is ebay my only option?

Cheers,
Alex
