Has anyone went to change the oil yet in their 10 ?
It kinda sucks!
The filter is on a remote pump and it sit vertical right on top of the exhaust pipes an when you take it off it dumps oil on the head pipes.
There must be a better way of doing it.......
The dealer did not even have an idea about the filter so I had to use a fram from Wally world!(used them on the 12 without a problem)
I have 300 miles and thoil looked new....no metal or anything!

You would never catch me using a fram filter...There have been examples of them coming apart, due to their poor design. The factory filter includes a overpressure relief valve to preclude damage to the filter, the fram does not.

I noticed the filter location and was wondering how it was going to be on changing it, might have to get a thin catch basin to protect the pipes, my 2cents, cant wait to get mine.
I believe the green one is the faster one no matter what anyone else says lol

The 0002 filter was introduced many months ago. It's another "multi-application" filter, similar to the old 1063. Dealers should have plenty of these 0002 filters in stock right now.
