Default WS Airfilter

I bought an air filter from spare parts today for my upcoming service, anyways I just looked under the bonnet and it looks huge compared to the air filter box?

Also, what are the screws that hold the airbox lid on?

Thanks much.

From memory, they are torx screws. You can grab a set from your local auto parts store.

Hope this helps mate.

Thanks much, had it serviced today at work, had 5500km on the clock and I got it 07/2009, the oil was a dark colour but it wasn't black. I think I'll change the oil and filter every 5500km from now on.

We also found this:





Rusted out drive shafts.
