I just wanted to thank whoever started the thread several months back about the two lower bellhouse bolts missing. This was the first time I was able to get a look under the car and sure enough I was missing them. Dealer replaced at no charge and the 1st oil change was also a freebie.

I stopped on the way home and picked up a pair of Rhino Ramps. Next oil change will only cost me filter & oil.

Anyone else notice that the oil filter is relatively small for a V8?

It's actually the same filter that they've been using on all the 4.6 V8 Mustangs (Incidentally, same on the Ford Duratec v6 vehicles as well - this makes it easy for me, all three vehicles, same filter).
