the oil filter is in the same place as it is on other corsas. it sits in front of the engine about half way in depth. its normally a white cap about 4 or 5 inches in diameter i do belive

on the 1.0 12v and 1.2 16v the oil filter is situated on an angle on the right hand side at the front of the engine. there should be a black cap that unscrews and the oil filter is inside alot easier to change and less messy lol :thumbs:

then on all other corsa\'s the oil filter is situated where stuart_sri said above /

yeah mate it did on mine cause you won\'t get a spanner to fit. If it is to tight you will need to invest in a oil filter removal tool from some where like halfords etc they are about £10 if that. :thumbs:
