Fixing a Suzuki Swift Oil Filter Housing Leak // easy to follow

Easy to follow video where we show how to fix an oil filter housing leak on a Suzuki Swift.

[@grantadamson3478]

From a fellow Kiwi, thank you heaps. This is exactly what I needed to fix my daughters oil leak.

[@sirlaffalot67]

Great video. Well filmed and everything explained clearly. Nice work mate :)

[@se7ve7ns]

same with Ignis (2004 etc) Thanks .... great lesson...

[@steveedmond9362]

Hey I watched this 3 times, then went to a local place that lets the public hire a hoist for $27/hr, it was very easy to do! I had a minor leak for ages until I decided to fix it. Shoulda done it earlier 🤪 Easy-peasy! One thing- ensure filter is filled with oil to avoid dry oil pump on start-up 😆

[@Xerisis]

Such an easy fix for a nasty oil leak! Thanks for the quick fix!

[@boxhead7180]

Awesome video mate. I'll be doing this on the weekend.

[@brianholdsworth2248]

GREAT VIDEO! Some things I do my self and that was a great example of how you can save a bit of money on some ridiculous prices some mechanics charge for an hours work, My daughters suzuki Swift had exactly the same problem so what happened in my case was that the mechanic unaware that I looked at this how to do video first before I went to him to get a price. I purchased the genuine o-ring from suzuki for $15.00 and the mechanic I went to, and it was not a Suzuki dealership, well his price was $290 dollars to put it in as per this video. Not bad money for less then an hours work if you can get. If he did it the only other thing he would of had to supply was a mouthful of oil to top it up to the appropriate level. Fello's don't send your wife or daughters to some of these Gold tooth mechanics. 😆 Brian.

Straight to the point , clear instructions , awesome vid man , make more 🥇

[@Stambo59]

Great video, unfortunately ours has an oil cooler sticking out the front of it making it a right pain in the you know where. Can still be done, there is a bolt on the manifold side that I got out with a ratchet spanner and smallish hands. 🙂

[@phats4059]

Hey cool video bro, I just did my rocket cover seal thinking that was the problem cause I had oil in the spark plug chamber, but it was still leaking from above the oil filter then I watched your video and it helped me a lot thanks bro massive help 🙂👍🏾

[@phats4059]

Another question would you know how to check for a faulty coil pack, my suzuki swift got a little bit of a surge and rattles like a lose chain at low revs then disappears at high revs would you know?

[@onedarkhorsee]

Exactly what i just done lol

[@sergev4443]

Thank you Sir, clear and concise! Much appreciated. 🙏

[@meganmcvey9371]

What a top man!

[@asimoshe2942]

Thanks for the video! I have the same problem with my Swift 2008, maybe you can help me with two questions: 1. Can it be done with jack lifting the front of the car 15 inches above ground? I don’t have any access to a lift. 2. Do i need to drain all the oil first, or it’s OK to leave the oil inside and just take out the filter and it’s housing?

[@mixedbagltd]

Hi, Yep, you should be fine using the jack. And yes, just remove the filter then the housing, no need to remove the oil. Just don’t start it without the housing and filter on :)

[@dazem5418]

Thanks mate you saved me money

[@mohannadgharaibe9888]

Thank you.all the way from jordan.

[@Skipper-hl4kx]

You sir, are a legend.

[@shirl8084]

Great video. However, I need to know how to replace a gasket on a Suzuki SX4 2011. Is there one anywhere?

[@K.Bush94]

It supposed to be the same as for this swift. I have an sx4 too.

[@nigelwilliams3410]

Did it....great help.. do more!!

[@kentepisodes143]

Wow great... Can we buy that oring without bringing a sample? Just curious.

[@stephencreigh2800]

Nice job Mate 👍

[@nigelwilliams3410]

Thank you..I have a leak on mine and I was wondering if it was the oil pressure switch but it seems it is the housing

[@punyaarthanayake6919]

❤❤

[@meganmcvey9371]

Make more

[@rikimorton6951]

Could this leak cause drive belt to squeek

[@mixedbagltd]

Hi - not really - if it’s a high pitched squeal mainly when it’s cold and then goes away as it warms up it’s probably a loose belt that needs tightening. If it’s a squeak all the time it may me a worn belt that just needs replacing or a worn idler bearing. Pete.

[@steveedmond9362]

Your wife has a nice laugh 🤣

[@pazpaz6609]

Hey. Can you tell me the O-Ring number for Suzuki Liana. Or are they all same? Because my Suzuki lianas Oil Filter housing looks the same like this Suzuki Swift oil filter housing.

[@BenjaminWalker-u7p]

Does anyone know a good video to fix the oil leak from timing chain cover on the Suzuki Swift m15A ?

[@MaaaatO]

Great video guys! I've got a leak someone on mine.....could be here! May as well check that out! :)

[@ahmadaizuddin8490]

tq bro👍👍👍

[@germanshepherdlover2613]

My daughter has the 2006 Sport model with the 1.6L engine. We can't access the three bolts without taking the exhaust and cat off. I assume different housing, certainly looks different.

[@jakethemaster]

It can be done with it on its just a monumental pain. Need ratchet spanners , 1/4 and 3/8 sockets with swivels. Have to remove exhaust heat shield and move out of way. Bottom passengers side bolt to last out first in very tight but can be done.

[@LungsMcGee]

@@jakethemaster Nice to know mate cheers. Shoulda known the Sport would be a PIA. Either doing this or the front crank seal next few days. Or both.

[@asimoshe2942]

And another question - what is this spray you are using to clean the housing part?

[@mixedbagltd]

I was using brake clean, but anything similar would be fine!

[@Briteboy678]

Anyone got dimensions on the o ring?

[@paulfraserneish7807]

I need another housing ??

[@that682kid.C]

Do you have to seal it to or just replace o ring

[@mixedbagltd]

Hi - just need to replace the o ring.

[@that682kid.C]

@@mixedbagltd thank you mate legend

[@paulfraserneish7807]

Someone put to thick an o ring in and tightened it to tight and broke housing
