Great idea but you forgot the part where on most cars you aren’t gonna have that much room around the filter to work with

@@COLDSTONEytI do it successfully with 2 inch pipe pliers with 45 degree head. It grips easier and needs less room than pipe wrench. By the way, in my country 14 inch pipe wrench can grip 2.5 inch diameter max., while pipe pliers can 3 inch. My oil filter is 2.75 inch diameter.

@@COLDSTONEyt OK, at least it worked for ypu. I couldn't use your method, because I can hardly squeeze my bare hand down there, so the pipe pliers are ideal for being thin and long and having wide jaws with sharp teeth which really dig in the filter surface.

I use an old mouse pad... The grippiness works perfect in most situations. And it's flexible so it can fit in tight spaces. Sometimes you can just "push" it with it wrapped around the filter.

I've got a gorilla grip, so they say, and couldn't loosen the first filter I changed when I bought used car. That pos excuse of mechanic really tightened that poor filter (and all the bolts on car, like lug nuts and brakes bolts...). I practically lifted the front of the car with my hands on the filter and it didn't budge. What helped was 2 inch pipe pliers.
