Thanks, Morozov Automotive, for uploading this. It helped me tremendously changing the oil on a Honda Civic 2009. Tips for people who are looking to change their oil: 1. oil plug will be either 16 or 17mm or 11/16. 2. If a business changed the oil last it will be really hard to get the drain plug out without the car lifted because they use drill guns. I fought with my oil plug too long before taking it to grease n go to loosen the plug. 3. Have a Oil Filter Wrench. The oil filter is in a tough position to get a good grip by hand. Now this is the same as #2. If it was hand tightened last it should be easy to get off but if some business did it last be prepared. Those were the few problems I ran into.

[@marksystemed4678]

I have a splashproof guard so I took it to the garage to do. I heard that there is a metal plate to take off in order to get to the sump plug bolt.

[@seancranston2608]

Great tutorial, no need to Jack the car up. It’s safer and allows the oil to drain better when the car is level. Thanks for teaching us

[@benjaminchavez4219]

The “172 thumbs down” 👎 are from all the other youtubers who uploaded videos on how to do an oil change! 🤦‍♂️ I don’t see how u couldn’t like this. It was very beneficial to me! Thank you 🙏 for this video, beloved. Take care. Blessings

Thank you. For those asking why car it's not jacked. You need a flat surface for the fluids to be properly drained. Thank's again, keep up the good work!

[@jeffreywhicker8947]

i havent looked under my Granddaughters Honda yet to see what the shape of her oil pan is but i cant remember ever seeing one in any car that didnt give better drainage with the car jacked up and oil pan sloping slightly to the rear

No one thought about considering the guy’s arm length...this is important, because, if he is tall, he barely reaches the drain bolt. That would be a “tad” hard to reach to a shorty like me. 😅

If you can't reach the drain bolt, you can always lift the car or use ramps.

[@iguana5500]

Crawling under a vehicle is strictly for trucks and SUVs. Jack the car up a few inches and use a jack stand. Remember to use handbrake or put chock behind car. Also 9 out of 10 times you will not remove a filter with your bare hands. Get an oil filter wrench otherwise you may be changing oil and not filter (which is ok too once in a while).

[@bboyTRINIDAD67]

How many bottles of oil did you use when you were putting the new oil in it?

[@kristiandarden]

Very well done.

[@robinfrost5439]

Seems like the plastic undertray has already been removed

[@YD-uq5fi]

Question about oil filters : Can you just save the old one, soak it in soapy water, and use it again? Sure, it is cheap, but the guy is already using a cut soda bottle instead of a funnel. More importantly, we are reducing waste in the environment.

[@hobo101101101]

Sure, go ahead. Get soap and water where oil should be.

you can try using vice grip pliers.

Breaker bar. If you dont have one, add something to make the handle on your tool longer like a pvc pipe

[@Cmagic678]

Has anyone had to replace the oil filter housing bolt? (the bolt that the filter goes on / part #: 90015-ph1-013) I may have to eventually do it because the dealership did something to it and now it doesn't come off the same as it did, like there's resistance, my mechanic pointed it out last time.

[@jaspercottrell1140]

Man I forgot how loud those fucking Sky Trains are in Vancouver

[@yamaharaptor01able]

You didn't prime the filter first. Should always add oil to a filter that "screws up" to ensure oil flow to the engine during initial start up.

[@howado]

Nonsense. You should inform yourself this isn’t the only way air filter is attached. Some cars have it horizontal or even straight bottom up which means your prefilled oil would end up everywhere but where you claim it should be, when re-inserting. Don’t think engineers designed all the other cars to get engine damaged with each oil and oil filter change cause of “improper” oil flow at initial start up.

[@annalorenzo75]

4:55 isn't that exactly what he is doing?

[@yamaharaptor01able]

@@annalorenzo75 No he's just lubing the rubber ring seal around the outside edge. He should've filled the oil filter w/new oil before installing. That's called "priming" the filter. The engine will now run for a short time without any oil in it🤷‍♂️

[@annalorenzo75]

@@yamaharaptor01able interesting. Im gonna have to watch another KZbin on that.

[@chriskachersky2506]

Not really though...unnecessary. I mean, if you feel like doing that, that's great. Maybe in a system where 100% of the oil is channeled through the filter prior to everywhere else..this would be an issue...but oil is typically not distributed that way. A smaller percentage ends up being cycled through the filter, in terms of complete distribution. Over time, all of the oil will eventually have cycled through the filter, yet it has cycled thorugh the engine many times over. Simply filling the oil puts more than enough oil where it needs to be for start up. The sump will have plenty of oil to draw when its properly filled, and it will be pumped to all of the intended areas in the same amount of time. Your filter will also have oil in it too, without priming. If you don't believe me, just fill your oil during your next oil change with the drain plug installed but don't install the filter until after the fill. Hint: you might want to leave that drain pain underneath...or have fun cleaning up, lol!!

How does not changing the washer effect the oil leaking or not?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Basically, it could leak. But very likely won't.

[@pawelcitak83]

I own this car and never change the washer, never leaks, I change oil every 6 months. No need to change this to be honest, just dont use too much force and it will last.

[@miked104]

Not changing the washer could affect the seal. Pretty much the bolt and engine oil pan that the bolt screws into may not be a perfect seal, so the washer goes in the middle and when under pressure, it conforms to the bolt head and the oil pan. Usually the washer get crushed in between, so its a greater chance that it will not seal as well after it gets deformed. But if you tighten it well, it should be fine. I have resued a washer before but i usually replace everytime.
