Default MC TDCi Oil filter removal

Hi Guys

My MC TDCI has hit 110,000 and the little sticker on the windscreen says it is service time. I am handy and a tight **** so want to do it myself.

I though the MA oil filter was difficult to get to but it is nothing compared to this. Before buying the parts I have tested that my socket/ratchet fits. I can get it on but think that if I undo the lid the gap is too tight to actually get it off..

Has anyone managed this without going to the expense of a special tool?

PS: love how they have to make the oil filler movable to allow servicing...
