I don't know if I would've had the patience to pour 3 quarts through that tiny hole..

. If gaining access to the filler bolt was more difficult that I expected then I would've opted to that method. I'm just glad I changed everything without running into one single issue.

I didn't really have a problem with it either. The only issue I ran into was needing a 12" extension for my wratchet, but my neighbor had one.

Maybe they tweaked something before the '07 to make it easier on the dealer?
