it is accessed from under the engine, and about 20cm after the radiator, towards the back of the car
its not your standard metal spin on filter, but rather just a cartridge type
so, in front of the sump, and about 10cm from the bottom, there is a black cap (about 16 sided or thereabouts) and about 4 inches in diameter.
you will notice it by the 15mm diameter silver bolt in the middle of the cap, that has a 6mm (i think) allen key recess, which is the drain plug for the black filter cap
when you buy a replacement cartridge filter, there will be 2 rubber o rings, one for the black cap, and another for the drain plug
do not drain the filter cap, because it will make it a real pain in the arse to get the filter cap off, that is unless you have that specialist filter cap removal thing that fits over the cap exactly
just remove the drain plug to replace the o ring once the cap is off
