Help! I have an 05 S40 T5 that I've always had serviced at the dealer. I finally decided to do the oil changes myself as the dealer is a 100+mile round trip. I have the proper oil filter wrench and universal joint to get an extension down to it's hiding place. The cap has an arrow indicating a clockwise rotation. No amount of force gets the cap to rotate. Did the dealer install it with an impact wrench or am I missing some trick.

Thanks,

Problem solved. Be aware that the arrow on top of the filter housing indicates the direction the cap should turn when you replace it (da). It took a breaker bar to get it loose but the cartridge filter is now replaced.
