Hi, their are a couple of options you have you can buy a oil filter remover tool that goes all the way round the oil filter to undo it.

They get pretty tight over time as the heat from the engine welds them on so can be difficult to loosen.

If you are using the removing tool then dont worry about breaking the filter as it will come off broken or not.

The other option you have is stab a thick screwdriver threw the filter so it comes out the other side you will get some oil coming out of the hole so put bucket under neath, now with the screw driver stabbed through try undoing it slightly.
With the screwdriver stabbed through it this should give you more leverage and loosen slightly once loosened remove screwdriver then undo by hand.

It dont matter if you damage the filter just make sure you have something under neath as it has about half a liter of oil in it.

They do get stuck tight but it will undo dont worry about breaking it as you will be replacing with a new one.

Let me know how you get on or if you need further assistance ok.
