Definitely a lot cheaper and more satisfying when you do it yourself.

Get some latex gloves one cool Mike. Gotta keep those hands clean for all the ladies you have in the back of the trax
@onecoolmike80059 ай бұрын
I appreciate that. But I haven't no luck with the ladies lately. I guess my pockets aren't big enough lol. But thanks for watching. You right though.

When you change your oil does it have a reddish tint to it
@onecoolmike80053 ай бұрын
No.if it is red you pulled the transmission fluid. Oil is golden brown

Hi. Just a quick question. It look to me you was tighten the nut to loosen it and you was loosen to tighten it back.

Does doing your own oil change have an impact on your warranty?
@onecoolmike80053 ай бұрын
No oil change does not effect warranty. It is basic maintenance. Thanks for watching.

why is the loosening/tightening in reverse? even the engine compartment looks reversed.

I wonder why the 2025 trax takes 0w20 when the 2024 takes 5w30?
@onecoolmike80055 ай бұрын
That's a good ? It is basically the same oil . 5W30. And 0W. But if I was you go with the 5W30. And check your dealership too
@speedandstyletony5 ай бұрын
The engine is slightly different in that it is e85 rated. Perhaps that dictated the change?
@Dr_Reason4 ай бұрын
Change it often. The wet timing belt can react with old oil. I would go about 5000.

Those oils are similar, I been using 5w30 4 quarters. Check again by the dealer though.
