Did my oil change yesterday, thanks for the write up AK. Of the 16 bolts theres two that on the sides that go into metal clips not solid metal. These lil bastards were a mofo to get off and I find it strange that no one else in this thread has mentioned these. I had my first oil change done for free by the dealer so Im thinking maybe they screwed them up somehow because when I was trying to take these specific bolts out the clips just rotated with the bolt. Anyway my solution in the end once I finally got them removed was that 14 bolts will hold that plastic cover on just fine.
