Oil Change Jacking
Where is the best place to jack up and support the front of my P1800S to change the oil?
Is it safe to jack it up on the subframe cover ? Best place for supports ? |

Trolley jack under the centre of the front cross member. Raise it enough to get an axle stand under each side on the jacking pads close to the B posts. No need to raise it high. You can leave the trolley jack after lowering it a bit so that the car is firm on the axle stands. Still, be careful and get as little of you under the car to allow you to do the job. Sump plug is easy but the oil filter is another matter.
