know how to do. In the long run it can save
you tons of money. Dealership prices are around
45 for average oil changes, when you can do it
yourself for around 30 dollars. Plus that is with
a good oil product like Pennzoil. Dealerships use cheap oil and filters that aren’t the best for
your car. The first thing you need to do is go to
a parts store and ask them what oil and filter
you need for your vehicle. The things you will need to do this is a wrench for your drain plug,
an oil catch pan, a funnel, and maybe a oil filter
wrench if you cant get it off by hand. All though
you can almost always get the filter off with out
a wrench. The first step is jacking your car up.
Next you will have to go underneath and remove
the drain plug. Make sure you have the oil pan
way. Once you have that done you can get out
from underneath the vehicle. Wile your waiting
for it to drain you can remove the oil filter, and
install the new one. When you take the old one
off make sure the o-ring comes off with it. And
when you install the new one make sure to putoil on the new o-ring so it seals back up, and
doesn’t leak. After this you go back underneath
the car and reinstall the drain plug. After all of
this is done you are ready to put the oil in. You
put the funnel in the oil filler neck and add the
recommended amount of oil. Then you have to
go start the car and let it run for 20 seconds.
Shut it off and go pull out the dip stick, wipeit
off and re insert it, then pull it out again and make
sure to oil is in-between the to marks or to the
full line. After all of this you are done and your
car is ready for another 3 thousand miles.
