NX4510 First Oil Change

[tmanmi]

I don't think this is suppose to happen. Do they use impacts to put on filters?

Not sure about the impacts but mine was super tight as well...way to tight in my opinion. But then the first oil change on anything is always super tight

Wow!
I was thinking I would see a situation where the seal on the filter was not lubricated by a very thin film of oil when installed. That causes the seal to glue itself to the engine. I guess they forgot to torque the filter mounting tube, and then over torqued the filter.

Yes, same happened on my NX4510. Pretty common problem with all the filters on first change. Original filters must have been installed dry. Hopefully you hydraulic and HST filters come off easier.
