Just changed the oil in my 2005 S60 D5 but hit a snag after draining the oil!! Couldn't find the oil filter removal socket i bought the other day, tried everything else i could think of, including a strap, but wouldn't budge. Unfortunately couldn't do without car and, having no way of getting replacement, had to refill with new oil leaving the old filter in. Now i'm wondering, given the location of the filter, would it be possible to change it on it's own without redoing the oil?

Thanks for any thoughts.
