This is a basic run-down of what is involved when changing the oil on the new Ducati Diavel. The process is pretty much identical to the 848, 1098, 1198, and Streetfighter engines, but for those who haven't done an oil change on any Ducatis, this will get you going.
Tools needed;
-5mm & 4mm allen drive sockets
-Ratchet
-Torque wrench
-Oil filter socket or other filter tool, 17mm wrench for K&N KN-153.
-Flat head screwdriver and rubber mallet (in case the oil filter is stuck)
-needle nose pliers
-Ducati ThreeBond 1215 (or other high temp liquid gasket)
-funnel (when refilling)
-oil pan
-shop light (optional)
-OIL!
-Bucket or other container for old oil.
Full Synthetic 4T 10w40, 15w50, or any other weight for your local ambient temperatures listed in the manual. I prefer Mobil 1 4T Racing Full Synthetic, Motul 4T Racing Full Synthetic, or Repsol 4T Racing Full Synthetic.
Oil filter is Ducati part # 444.4.003.5A or a K&N KN-153.
