For those wondering, the oil filter housing takes a 32mm socket. You'll want a low-profile one because a regular socket won't have enough clearance.

[@jorgemilian3308]

Thanks for the tip ,I bought the 33 mm socket for it ,thanks a lot for the video is very helpful

[@thehighlightsreel953]

Unfortunately this is true. Don't even try and bullshit it.

[@benm5651]

Precisely what I was wondering thank you. Why Chevy does this we may never know

[@evilsquirrelratsr4529]

Thank you guys!

[@guysumpthin2974]

Makes a big difference which brand of filters u use ; some filters leave wads of filter media in the oil holes of the cam journals on ecotec

[@shustyrackleford_710]

Okay, which ones are the bad ones?

[@victormiranda1235]

Does it matter the oil filter you use if you are using synthetic oil

[@JoeTheDIY]

Thank you!

[@LaquittaQualls-ro6xf]

Thank you❤️

[@maynardreed4036]

That filter looks like same that went in my grandmothers cobalt with the 2.2l ecotec

[@kingv911]

No crush gasket on the engine oil plug?

[@neurosurgeon3938]

❤ Thank you

[@alfonsoturrubiartes2585]

Muy bueno

[@jellis9964]

not gonna learn much at all from looking at filter regarding metal frags....if it looks dirty as it should than its doing its job....and needs replaced..but thanks for your video..you did a great job and helps people out..all I needed to know is where the oil filter was...new for me regarding new style filters...thanks again

[@kimplesalaska6420]

Not really true. Excessive metal frags in oil filter will tell you if your engine bearings are damaged, piston ring is damaged, oil filter is defective or if there has been friction from poor oil maintenance.

[@nsphoenix6660286]

Is this technique used for the regular Chevy Malibu Ls 2011?

[@EvanGoyuk]

Yes

[@douglasfox2090]

That gm oil filter is collapsing from the synthetic oil...Get a mobil1 Amsoil, K@N or Fram Synthetic media top of the line filter...Fram synthetic oil filters are top notch..All have Synthetic media for Synthetic oil... Gm filters are ok for Conventional or semi synthetic oil..But not Full Synthetic or 100% synthetic

[@ChrisRestores]

Ehh. Mostly all the oil filters i see are like that. I don't thinks its from the oil its self

[@EvanGoyuk]

I have since switch to a fram one and I like it much better

[@brandongarnett5582]

Fram is junk

[@sherlcarver6970]

How do you change back braces on it yet but it is not I too have how do you change the back brakes

[@sherlcarver6970]

How do you. Change back brakes

[@ranada25]

Did you jack the car up or have it on a ramp?

[@EvanGoyuk]

+Ranada25 I had it on ramps.

[@ranada25]

Thanks...that's next on my list of to buy before attempting this myself.😊

[@EvanGoyuk]

+Ranada25 It makes it so much easier than will a jack and jack stand.

[@Boodieman72]

I use an oil extractor that way I don't even have to rise the car.

[@JM811Cars]

Then you dont remove all of the oil, and it takes far longer

[@Boodieman72]

@@JM811Cars You actually remove more oil by extraction that you do when you drain it. It does take longer though.

[@JM811Cars]

5 quarts of oil, its supposed to be at the top marker on the dip stick

[@krazyj1957]

Were are you at. Here in Hot Springs, AR you can get the AC Delco Synthetic blend oil change at the dealer for $38.00 and Ac Delco Dexos1 Full Synthetic Oil change for $68.00.

[@bsmack66]

Where do you dispose of the used oil?

[@EvanGoyuk]

Walmart 😁

[@ouachitamountainpreparedne5380]

Neighbors yard, makes great fertilizer

[@lordcheese489]

Oh snap all this time I've been disposing it on my neighbor's yard lmfao

[@nathanielschmitt6547]

This engine has a lot of problems the trans burns quickly and a lot of moisture gets into the engine.

[@jaime13huerta]

I thought these cars have to run dexos oil nothing else??

[@ViperJay5]

Dexos isn't an oil, it's GM's standard for oil. Any oil that is 5w-30 and has the Dexos logo on the bottle will be just fine. Mobil 1, Valvoline, Pennzoil, doesn't really matter. As long as they have the Dexos logo on the bottle, you're good to go!

These sicking cars are all dam different 😩 I regret wasting my money on this junk my oil doesn't go there my battery is different so is the fuse box can't pull up any codes because the obd plug in doesn't work worse car ever made fuc.... These ass holes take your bumper off to change a dam bulb evil 😈

[@bigfoottheyyankee8707]

I never understand why people use synthetic on such a shity f****** old car

[@kimplesalaska6420]

Synthetic oil is great for these cars, it's when you get to a car that is actually old (pre 1990) that synthetic oil is a problem.

[@mishroeder9490]

I usually fill the oil to the dip line, start the vehicle and let it run for a second, then check oil and fill as needed. Usually 4.7 quarts.
