the filter is the exact same one as the 3.0L S-type. i changed mine a month ago. I can get the pureolater part number if you need it, or you can get it on there web site


Ok... so I was told by a few on this board that the oil filter I needed was the same as the S Type. I went to NAPA and first asked for the X-Type, which was unavailable, so I said well… give me one for an S-Type. When I looked under the car they appeared to be the same size. After draining all the oil from my car and removing the old filter I find out that they are not the same. The hole on the new filter was much larger. Was I given the wrong filter? Wrong year (I said 02)? Where did I go wrong?
