Oil leak around the filter after installation

Ensure the filter gasket was properly lubricated and seated. Re-tighten the filter slightly by hand. If the leak persists, the gasket may be damaged or the filter may be incorrectly installed; remove and inspect.

Use a proper oil filter wrench designed for stubborn filters. Ensure you are turning it in the correct counter-clockwise direction. If the filter is severely seized, consider using a strap wrench or a filter pliers.
