I change the oil without having to remove the engine under-shield. (I'm not sure what it should be called, but it's the large cover/tray secured to the chassis below the engine). Also it's best to use a large (English) socket to unscrew the top of the filter housing. That's necessary to be able to tighten to the correct torque when the new filter has be fitted.

Please don’t worry you speak 4 languages including English there are a lot of English can’t speak 1 ..???...
 
I think that losing the bottom engine cover is much like having scratches on the rear arches!! It was part of a special option pack fitted by Audi to EVERY A2 I'VE OWNED ?

Seriously though, great video again. Can't wait to see the suspension one, really interested to see exactly how that is done.
 
Thanks for the excellent and entertaining video, I like the commentary with or without accent. So good that you can fill with oil straight from a 5 litre can, no funnel needed ! Personally, I would pay the extra for a Mann branded filter over Crosland though
