Hi yendall24, the o ring was coming with the new oil filter, together with the copper washer. I´ve already fitted both of them. Thanks for your comments.

Thanks, I´ve done it and like you said before, only with some drops of oil around. Next time I will do it the right way: oil and filter together. By the way between the plastic cup and the reservoir there was not O ring: the last person doing the oil change, decided that it was not necessary...

Sorry but I have another question: Because I couldn´t find the oil filter in that moment, I just put the new oil witout changing the filter. If the filter is in the top part of the engine, can I change the filter without draining the new oil that is already in the engine ? Thanks

Hello, I´m a new member and today I was changing oil ( and filter but...) in my 1999 Audi 2.5 tdi Avant. The problem is that it seems that to get to the oil filter, I should remove the power steering pump ( or maybe is the AC compressor ). Is it necessary to do this ? Thanks in advance. Carlos...
