[@slurms777]

People who make helpful videos like this are the true working mans MVP, cheers mate.

[@retrorestore]

No problem Phil, Thanks bud. Cheers Martin

[@jozefkovac6858]

@@retrorestore Really thank you. From the bottom of my heart.

[@legionaireone]

underneath oil filter in the middle you have 8mm socket for allen key. This is for drain oil from filter first to avoild splash everything around as you can see on this video.

[@macclesfieldufosociety5490]

What a nice bloke. I've changed my engine oil many times on my old Mondeo mk3 and this chap covered every point of importance. Excellent.

[@retrorestore]

Thanks bud

[@gregv3920]

Cheers mate! Picking up a used Mondeo in the morning after wrecking my car last week and first thing I wanted to to was change oil and filters and brakes. Thanks to this I can jack the car up the second I get home with all tools at the ready :)

[@dmack1443]

Many thanks for bothering to upload this..I love it when people just explain and show exactly what they're doing and you do that perfectly....I'll be checking my Mk4 tomorrow to see if it's similar.

[@dighsx]

My wifes mini cooper takes a low profile 36mm socket. I picked one up off ebay for not too much. Makes the job a lot simpler. Well done, Jay

[@retrorestore]

+Jay Dighsx Yes, I think i'll invest in one too Jay. Makes the job a lot simpler. Cheers Martin

[@skavenger3603]

Many thanks for this video, I own an old cuckoo which reached recently 200 000 kms (125 000 miles) and, thanks to you, I know how to do it flawlessly !

[@retrorestore]

That's great Bud. Thanks for watching. Cheers Martin

[@jimbradley2607]

Good job mate. Showed exactly what to do and very clearly too. Thanks de lad.

[@gerry6612]

I have just started watching your videos and find them very helpful, thanks

[@sisenandoi9174]

Great Video, I need to change my oil next week and this video is very helpful, reading the comments, I will buy a 36mm socket to the filter (is more easy and safe I read in the comment section) and I will do it, thanks a lot @retrorestore and thanks for the helpful comments in this video, Im learning a lot and I repair Ford Mondeo MK3 a lot of times with this videos, I save a lot of of money, thanks for all, have a nice day and Greetings from Spain.

[@aminekaram4913]

Thank you sir! 1st oil change done, looking forward to changing the fuel filter...

[@gideontwum3799]

You are amazing. This helped soo much. Clear and very informative. Thank you

[@retrorestore]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tete-d2i]

Sir nice video, I have the same car TDDI engine and I will do myself next service. As a constructive critic you should have showed to replace the washer of the Carter screw, which must done every oil change. Eventhough thanks a lot for your time and videos, I am learning a lot to service my Mondeo in Spain from you. Cheers and keep up!

[@julianlangdon3456]

Cheers, but has nobody in all these comments mentioned the size of the Copper Crush Washer on the Sump Plug?

[@mikemapson7281]

cheers, it gives us all a good look at where things are on this engine. might be worth getting the right sized socket for the filter (they really arent expensive) instead of using monkey and chain wrenches on a plastic cannister; this will limit the chance of serious damage when changing the element inside.

[@krisjones5125]

another top vid martin, well done mate. whats with the 3 wheeler in the background mate. whats the plans?

[@retrorestore]

+Kristian Jones That's going to be turned into a Trotter van next year. Cheers Martin

[@martinhall9074]

[@retrorestore]

+Martin Hall Haha, yes, I know what you mean about the wind blowing the oil Mart. I did get splashed as well. Cheers Martin

[@shawnmrfixitlee6478]

Thumbs Martin , I see the companies are going back to old day style sock filter .. Interesting , I know there cheaper to make !!

[@retrorestore]

+ShawnMrFixit Lee Good reliable engines as well Shawn. Cheers Martin

[@mariocortes78]

La primera vez que cambie el aceite y el filtro a mi ford Mondeo MK3 rompí el tapón del filtro por usar una llave inglesa (ya que el tapón es de plástico y iba muy duro). Recomiendo el uso de un vaso de 36 ya que la fuerza se realiza por igual en todas las caras de la tuerca. No recomendaría intentar el uso de llave inglesa o cualquier llave tipo Stilson ya que solo ejerce fuerza en dos caras de la tuerca.

[@retrorestore]

Sí, eso es correcto, especialmente con una tuerca de plástico.

[@stephenratcliffe5340]

Cheers m8 Very helpful 👍

[@retrorestore]

Glad it helped

[@markybyeah]

retrorestore Top man. Keep the videos coming

[@jamescullen4196]

What's happening with the hydro tank Martin

[@retrorestore]

+James Cullen Not had a chance to finish it off yet. it's still going to get done. Cheers Martin

[@jsof2]

Ahh, the joys of getting hot, dirty engine oil all over your hands - it's happened to me so many times! Good call about wearing gloves though, Martin - some nasty chemicals in that old oil.

[@retrorestore]

+jsof2 Yes, I should have put them on. not good stuff as you know. Cheers Martin

[@shiroikuma770]

Very good job! Thanks for this movie. :-)

[@retrorestore]

Thanks you for watching bud

[@elcrdbe7106]

Bien explicado

[@howardevans6302]

Word of warning, the oil filter housing isn't supposed to be much more than hand tight....tighten by hand and use a correct socket just to nip it a little tighter; the rubber seal will do the rest. You certainly don't want to use a chain tool or any excessive torque on it. It's only made of plastic, after all.

[@retrorestore]

I know that bud.

[@shakilndc]

very helpful thanks a lot

[@retrorestore]

No problem, glad it helped. Cheers Martin

[@boomemeney6916]

Legend real geezer

[@gallopingg1]

TOP MAN

[@brianpercival1829]

I'm too lazy for an oil change. Then you have to recycle that used oil and filter. Jacking the car, jack stands, crawling around on the cold ground. My knees are bad enough. Ya, I know, your showing how to do it. Say hi to everyone there.

[@retrorestore]

+Brian Percival I didn't want to do it either Bri lol but it's not been done and you never know when the previous owner did it. Cheers Martin

[@brianpercival1829]

You know that sticker they put in the window "Next oil change '64,560' (5000kms later) my car never gets to it, a year later and it's fall again, change it before winter.

[@retrorestore]

Brian Percival lol.

[@DKNY707]

Great job mate , very helpful
