Anyone got the link for oil filter change ? Going to change them along with new spark plugs for the service. Much appreciated.

To change a oil filter is easy, remove under tray or what looks like half one, then you'll see the filter housing, screw the thin cap off, socket and rachet to undo housing, change filter and rubber ring on the housing, I put a dab on oil on the rubber ring then just tighten it on think it's got a torque setting on it but just nip it up but not to tight or it'll crack.
