I recently purchased an '02 Black Mica Protege, and it is sweet. Not quite as sweet as my '93 RX-7, but it keeps up the Mazda tradition quite well! Here's the question-where the !!@#$&^% did they hide the oil filter?

TIA,

jim

 

under the engine toward the firewall

you need to climb under to get to it.

 

Thanks_I'll look for it. By the way, nice pair!

 

its mounted up above the intermediate shaft onto the side of the block. Its tiny, like a tuna can almost, so feel around if you have poor lighting under the car...This was all just in case you still had trouble finding it...
