Oil Change & Filter

Im a confident DIY Mechanic and normally do the oil change on my TT & Golf. How are they on one of these big boys? Its the 2.7 TDV6 Auto. I know the oil is a 5 30 Fully Syn but wonder how awkward it is doing the filter? Any tips would be great. Thanks

Ah so the filters on top! It looks easier than a normal oil swap.

2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 Base 7 Seat Manual Zermatt SilverDiscovery 3

Hardest thing I found was getting the bolts undone on the under tray. Had to grind 2 off and drill them out Shocked

Once that is off its a doddle.
