To be honest and maybe a bit direct, this is why the service should be performed by either a dealership or reputable servicing agent. If you nor your mechanic can find the oil filter then what is the level of servicing/checking going to be like? Something that you or the mechanic misses or does incorrectly can then go on to cause a fault and you'd expect the warranty to be upheld because you have the reciepts for the parts???

As I say, not having a dig per se but you can see how it looks from the manufacturers point of view.
