the oil pan drain bolt is a 15mm, and the nut to remove the filter is a 32mm, just did my oil change last saturday, you might have to remove the 2 10mm bolts holding the coolant overflow tank, to give yourself more room to work, but its not hard, just make sure you have a long extension to get the filter out.
