I havn't tried changing my oil/filter yet, I'll have the dealership do the first one.

But I was wondering, due to the placement and size of the oil filter, what's the best type of wrench to use?

Don't know if this is best:

My strap wrench was too big to work on that tiny thing. It was on awfully tight, I ended up using large channel-lock pliers -- worked pretty good. There's always the good old boy last resort -- drive a screwdriver through the side for a great lever.

I got one at Wal-Mart. It was the smallest one they had, and luckily it fit. It's one of those plastic ones that you attach a standard ratchet too. I wouldn't advise the screwdriver through the oil filter bit. I had a neighbor that did this, and all he accomplished was ripping the filter apart. In the end, he still couldn't get it loose. He finally had to call a wrecker service to get towed to the dealership. Hope this helps!
