Can you help please,after looking around,i can't find the answer.

So,what oil goes in the 2.2dci (year o5)?
Is the sump plug a special tool?
How many litres?
Do you need a special tool to take out the oil filter?
Where is the fuel filter?
Is pollen filter easy to replace?

All help is great as i'm new to this car!!!

If I remember correctly you need 6.3ltr of semi synthetic oil and you need a square ended allen key for the sump plug, i just re-shaped an old allen key I had.
You need an oil filter removal strap for a socket set as they are a bit hard to get to, the fuel filter is on the front left of the engine bay and you need a torques screw driver to open it up.
I am just about to do the pollen filter on my espace, but it looks easy enough.

Re: Espace 2.2 dci oil and filters

I would like to add to my previous comments, I have started to use fully synthetic and I found that it is much easier to get the oil filter out if you unscrew the support bracket on the two pipes that run down and under the sump then move them off too one side.:d
