Oilgeek will disagree with 2 things. 1 you should prefill your filter and 2 you should do your first oil change well before the standard interval.
@datboifixit1995Ай бұрын
@MrTopHat4 lol prefilling is a prehistoric method no one does, how would you prefill a horizontal mounted filter on a toyota or a upside down mounted filter on a subaru? Don't know who oilgeek is but i don't care
@MrTopHat4Ай бұрын
@datboifixit1995 his video is far more scientific than yours and has 3.2M views so there is that. My jeep has a side mount filter, I hold the gas pedal down for a few seconds to delay the fuel pump so it can prime after an oil change. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2SciIebpNd1pLMsi=58Q1O6Crh4f0A9xO

@MrTopHat4 never pre filled an oil filter and I've owned over 30 vehicles and it's never been an issue, like i said it's an outdated practice
@MrTopHat4Ай бұрын
@@datboifixit1995 of course you don't NEED to prefill the filter just like you don't NEED to run full synthetic oil but there is no harm is using methods that have been proven to reduce wear on your car. And telling people not to bother with prefilling is bad advice, that's why I said something. I'm honestly surprised you haven't heard of the motor oil geek as you are a mechanic like KZbinr yourself. He is very popular, and it never hurts to learn new things.
@datboifixit1995Ай бұрын
@MrTopHat4 there is absolutely zero proof that it reduces wear what are you even saying, CAT has even put info out telling people NOT to pre fill and you are potentially putting UNfiltered oil into the clean side of a filter when you pre fill, i will continue to tell people not to pre fill because it is 100% pointless I don't care what some geek says

Your tire pressure is too high. The correct setting is 33 PSI. My 2025 LS came from the dealer at 40 PSI. The ride was somewhat harsh and noisy. I reset the tires to 33 PSI which greatly improved the ride characteristics.

Caution! Every Chevy recommended oil change should be done by a Chevrolet or GM authorized shop so as not to void the warranty. It is highly recommended for direct injection, wet belt, turbocharged, and really any new car, the first oil change should by done in the first 1000 miles, preferably the first 300 to 500, those and in between recommended 7,500 mile oil change, can be done by the owner or other. This all for maximum longevity of the engine.

Those oil change pans are garbage. Oil splashes all over the place unless you’re extremely careful. I found it better to just use a regular open pan and then pour the old oil into the empty new oil container or save a gallon milk container for future use. It’s much easier and cleaner when you take the oil to the recycling place and you don’t have the messiness that come with using the combination oil pan/container.
