Hi all,

Appreciate if anyone could let me know whether there is manual for the instruction of the engine oil changing (together with the oil filter)?

I read the owner's manual and I got the electronic workshop manual.... but seems like they do not have any instruction for that....

Well.... I don't think I would change the oil myself... but, as there are not too many 3200GT here, just would like to see whether I can get the instruction and hand it to the mechanics to avoid them guessing how to do it..... and I would like to see whether there will be a model number of the oil filter, so that I can find one on ebay or other shops rather than just from the local dealer....

Thank you very much in advance!

PS: Appreciate if there is any manual for changing other consumable for the car as well.... Thanks a lot!

Oil change is relatively easy, you need about 6 Liters of Selenia 10W/60 racing oil and a replacement filter which you can get form Eurospares and probably most dealers, and possibly e-bay, not hard to get. Drain engine with engine warm/hot to make sure as much oil as possible is drained. remove filter and replace (new filter comes with new seals) refil to mark on dip stick. For a major service remove the sump pan and clean out debris and so on. other wise the same. The filter rotates off so normal filter wrenches work fine.
Although if you plan to do you own servicing you will see form the owners manuals that there are quite a number of regular service items. the major services include
cam belts replaced
oil change
gearbox oil change
oil filter
air filter
replace pollen filter
replace coolant
spark plugs
geometry set-up
air conditioning recharged, minor service is a sub set.
hope this helps!
