Default Oil Filter Q

I did a search about oil and filters and the information has been great. Good job, guys!

The lady's got a 2008 Cooper S. Gonna do the oil change myself. I see many of you stick with the OEM filter. Have there been any known issues using Wix or Purolator filters?

Also, where is the fuel filter and how easy is it to change on that critter? (My Lincoln was a p.i.t.a.)

Thanks for the info...

Stick with the OEM Filter it is only $8.00 and as far as the fuel filter it is in the gas tank and only needs changing at 100,000 miles unless you have a fuel problem
