Do you reset the maintenance count computer with an electronic tool or just ignore the message on the dash? If using a tool, which one do you recommend?

Are the wheel ramps required to get access to drain?
@johnholz394 2 жыл бұрын
Yes, wheel ramps or some other means of raising the rear of the car. (Alex C used 4-inch ramps in this video; I used 2.5-inch ramps (Amazon), and I got 'er done, but 4-inch ramps would clearly have made it easier.) You could probably get the job done with a floor jack, but I'd suggest using jack stands or some solid wood blocking under a suitable support point for safety while removing and re-installing the drain plug.

Sucking the oil out through the fill port is revolutionary with zero mess or getting under the car. Do you have a single daughter? I can send my resume to join the family. LOL.

Good video. BTW- You made me cringe when you removed the engine oil filter cap, you used a torque wrench. I was taught during my aviation maintenance training days that you should never 'break torque" with a torque wrench. Doing so can put a torque wrench out of calibration. You should have used a breaker bar or a ratchet. Then use the torque wrench to tighten the oil filter cap to the recommended torque when installing the cap.

@andrewlennon9374 4 жыл бұрын
good post, thanks. Just one thing on the oil volume thing; my owners manual states to check the oil with the engine at operating temperature but shut off for at least one minute. Did I hear your engine running when you were checking the level? Oil 'in the system and not in the pan may account for the reported low volume.

The question is, how long did u let the oil drain. That's the real question. Thanks. Just so I can know how busy work is gonna be when ppl in my area follow the how to. Which is WRONG. No 100% wrong but you missed very very important step. Meaby the most important one thx cheers
@alexc7591 4 жыл бұрын
I let the oil drain for well over an hour. And from the amount of oil it took to re-fill it, I would say it was more than enough time, and definitely more time than what your average dealer would wait for it to drain. By the way, you can see at 9:30 that not a single drop of oil is dripping from the oil pan, so I would say it drained long enough... Would mind enlightening us on what is the most important step that I missed?

I'm surprised you didn't do the air filters when you did the oil change. I know it is more of a pain, but you was already half way there. At any rate, it was a great video and I always enjoy watching technical videos. This one was very informative with torque specs and all.
@alexc7591 4 жыл бұрын
Thank you Jason! I didn't do the filters as they were basically new. If I recall correctly, the car had only 3,000 miles so the filters would have been overkill. Also, to remove the rear bumper to do the filter change I would've needed my assistant (aka son), who was off to college... hahaha.
