## Description

For DIY oil changes on vehicles with a 27mm cartridge-style oil filter cap, the WORKPRO socket wrench gives you a dedicated tool for engaging the cap.

Its slim 32mm profile is designed for access around filter housings in confined spaces. The six-point shape grips the cap across its flat surfaces.

Would a purpose-fit socket suit this job better than a crescent wrench? Its 27mm sizing and 3/8-inch drive make it a focused choice for compatible filter caps.

## Technical overview

This metric oil filter socket wrench has a six-point hex design with rounded edges. The six flat sides engage the filter cap while the curved corners are designed to help avoid rounding its edges. For an oil change, that shape provides a more targeted contact point than a general-purpose adjustable wrench.

- Type: Oil filter socket wrench
- Size: 27mm
- Drive: 3/8 inch
- Profile height: 32mm
- Material: Heat-treated 40Cr alloy steel, up to 45HRC
- Finish: Black finish for rust protection

The socket’s compact profile is useful when the filter housing sits close to surrounding components. Its hand-friendly body is shaped for handling during removal and installation, while the 3/8-inch drive connects it to a matching drive tool.

## What it works with

Use this wrench with a cartridge-style oil filter housing that has a 27mm cap. The listed compatible vehicle makes include Mercedes, Volkswagen, Hyundai, Kia, Mini, and Smart, fit depends on having the matching 27mm filter cap. This size-based approach is more useful than choosing a tool by vehicle badge alone, since it connects the socket to the cap it needs to engage.

Customer feedback describes the wrench as working well for oil changes, including on Mercedes vehicles, and some buyers highlight a fit on an Audi S4 filter housing. Buyers also mention solid construction and ease of use compared with a crescent wrench. These are individual experiences, so matching the cap’s 27mm size remains the practical way to select the tool.

## Usage tips

Before starting, confirm that the vehicle uses a cartridge-style filter housing with a 27mm cap. Seat the socket squarely so its six flat sides contact the cap, then use a compatible 3/8-inch drive tool to turn it. The low-profile body can help when working around tight clearance at the filter housing. Keep the socket aligned during the turn to make use of its six-point contact and rounded-edge design.

## Before you decide

**Which oil filter caps does this wrench fit?** It is designed for cartridge-style filter housings with a 27mm cap. Listed vehicle makes include Mercedes, Volkswagen, Hyundai, Kia, Mini, and Smart, as well as other vehicles using that cap size.

**What drive tool does it use?** The wrench has a 3/8-inch drive, so pair it with a compatible 3/8-inch drive tool.

**How does the six-point design engage the cap?** Its six flat surfaces grip the cap, while the rounded corners are designed to help protect the cap edges from rounding during use.

## Is it worth it?

A solid pick if you want a dedicated socket for a 27mm cartridge-style oil filter cap, especially when the housing is in a tight space. Its low profile, six-point contact, and 3/8-inch drive make it a practical addition to an oil-change toolkit for vehicles that match the cap size.
