SHO plastic panel under engine

[bamsho]

One the newer Tauri and Flex's the big plastic undertray is it all one piece and have to be removed to change oil.  I just changed oil and filter in wife's 2011 Fusion and thought I had to remove the whole piece, but was surprised they had to access panels.  WOW someone at FORD was actually thinking.

The metal skid plates on my 98 F-150 had access panels too, which made oil changes much easier.

Can't speak for flex, but you will need to remove for Taurus. Not a big deal, 2 screws and 2 clips. I really don't understand why people complain about it. My moms Infiniti has a belly pan with like 20 screws.

If you are referring to the Infiniti, yes. Needless to say, my Dad only did it once.

I don't like mine because it covers the front frame in the center where I want to jack at.  So I have to take the cover off BEFORE jacking up the front.
