Choosing the Right Wrench for VW Bora 1.9 TDI Oil Filter Change

Question

Hello, I am trying to change the oil in my VW Bora 1.9 TDI. Unfortunately I do not have a wrench to unscrew the oil filter.

Will I unscrew this oil filter with such a clamp ?

Maybe buy some other wrench?
Thanks in advance for all the answers

I have one, used several times successfully. Check if your filter sticks out enough to put it on.

And wouldn't it be better to buy a dedicated one .

Maybe better, but such a band wrench is universal and with it I will unscrew all kinds of filters....
Filter in my car I wanted to unscrew by hand, but it was impossible, I think with this band wrench can do

I've gone through all sorts of universal filter wrenches, and none compare to a self-made one made from a thick conveyor belt.

You know what, in the workshop I have two cases of dedicated and several different universal. Clamp, chain stiletto, pliers and strap. And still more than once you have to combine. For one car, it is better to buy a dedicated wrench and already. Or once in a while pay those five grand for an oil change and get rid of the problem of a wrench, dirty hands and the hassle of oil disposal.

Universal from the bicycle chain is also good.such here will work better than the band from the picture.

@eurotips , you can see that you have no experience in this. If the can filter is tightened firmly in the dry, such a chain wrench will bend it, tear it to pieces and not unscrew it.

But you yourself will admit that in such a situation a chain wrench is more effective than a band-aid, o ie at all it is possible to unscrew it without a dedicated socket and a meter extension.

I shit.... I wonder why people so superhumanly tighten these plugs after all, there is a rubber gasket and lightly pulls. The next two cases are reno 2.0 dci, and volvo gasoline with the filter at the bottom.

But no one tightens it - it sucks in the same way as a tin filter - you tighten it with one hand, and pull back after time you have to use a wrench.

As regular customers come there is no problem with plastic filters with metal ones too. And after others I sometimes pierce through with a jonnesway screwdriver and use a tube to unscrew the metal ones. So I know that some people do not have the sense to tighten mildly writing.

At this point, maybe I'll ask here.How to deal with such a filter? The welded overlay can have the form of a hexagon - then you know, the key. But what, what key - when does it look like in the photo? Filtron makes similar overlays. They are made because the filter can only be accessed from the bottom, under the car, and next to it there is no room for a key, e.g. a chain, and it is difficult to reach it even with your hands (you can feel and turn it slightly, but not so much force).Is there any key to this?
