Does the drain plug need any special tools?How do you change the oil and filter on 2 litre Honda CRV (X Reg) and what is the best oil?It isn't worth it to change your own oil and filter anymore, bring it to any/most car service places and they will do it for something like 20 bucks. That is almost how much the oil and filters cost themselves, they also usually do a free checkup on your fluids, tires, and brakes.



    If you have to do it on your own, you have to drain the oil from the plug in the oil pan, a flat rectangular piece on the bottom of your engine, filters generally screw on and off, just look for the piece that looks like the one you bought, it is a round cylinder, usually white or orange.



    Also Here is a guide I found if you want to do it yourself:

    Does anybody knows how to change the transmission oil filter for a chevy Malibu 1998?

    I want to change the filter of the transmission, but i don't know how to do it, please can somebody help me. my car is a Chevy Malibu 1998 3.1 l engineDoes anybody knows how to change the transmission oil filter for a chevy Malibu 1998?there is a pan under your car at bottem of transmission. it is pretty big like 10 by 12 inches wide, and has around 14 bolts in it. take all those out and drain fluid into a bucket. now get transmission fluid and filter gasket set at autozone or pep boys or whatever. when you drop the transmission pan wipe the bottem of pan out and leave the magnets in there, they collect all the grazed metal. pull the two bolts out of the filter and replace it. now wipe down the pan and replace the gasket and put it back on and add bolts. then replace the transmission fluid. then on a level surface go through all the gears and with the car in park and running check the fluid to see if it is correct level. i usually do this once a year and the next year i have it flushed for like 100 bucks at mechani or jiffey lube. now by draining tranny and replacing the filter you are only changing half the fluid cause the other half is in the torque converter so thats why it is nice to flush it sometimes, hope this helps. on another part. you might need a second person putting the pan back on cause keeping the bolts lined up inside the gasket can be tricky.Does anybody knows how to change the transmission oil filter for a chevy Malibu 1998?what paxton said...but just to clarify....do NOT ever use any gasket sealant on transmission pan.....



    and if u plan to keep this vehicle for a wile u might want to add a drain plug to the transmission pan to make future changes easier......part cost about 8 bucks at parts store and only takes a drill and about 5 min to install.......

    Does honda have fully synthetic oils? How much for an oil change?

    I drive a lot (3000 miles/month) and i want to save time changing the oil for my civic lx. i always take it to honda for a change of oil and filter, but would you think Honda has a fully synthetic one like Mobil 1? And how much do you think it would cost me? thanks!Does honda have fully synthetic oils? How much for an oil change?here's what you do. if you have an oil change place do the work, specify 4 qts. 10W30 VALVOLINE FULL SYNTHETIC, SEMI SYNTHETIC, or even standard motor oil, 1 qt. DURALUBE (an oil additive which coats all your moving parts in your engine, keeps the oil from breaking down and heating up, and extends the original mfg warrenty an extra 100,000 miles) VERY GOOD STUFF FOR YOUR ENGINE AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT, 1- BOSCH premium oil filter. bosch is, by far, the best filter. once you start using valvoline oil in your engine, stick with valvoline. it's not recommended that you keep switching brands of oils for the same engine. and also, the duralube is to be used every 4 oil changes. this engine will last a lifetime if you do this, and keep up the maintenance of your car. i do need to warn you that this is not a cheap oil change, but isn't your engine worth it? if you purchase the parts yourself, and using the standard valvoline oil (which, btw is ok when using the duralube) its going to be about $3.35/ qt. bosch filter about $6.00 and 1 qt duralube about $20.00/ qtDoes honda have fully synthetic oils? How much for an oil change?Yes they offer synthetic oil. You should go to an independent place, not the dealer. They will charge you like $40 for an oil change, an independent place charges like $25. Don't believe all the BS they offer with the oil change. It's a bunch of %26quot;inspects%26quot;...like inspect tires, inspect fluids. Basically just %26quot;looking%26quot; at your tires and fluids. Ohh big wow. Definitely not worth $20 extra dollars.Does honda have fully synthetic oils? How much for an oil change?Honda does have full synthetic oil. You will pay an additional

    $20.00 more on top of the regular oil and filter change price.

    Japanese 150cc Motorcycle oil change and filter how to?

    I bought my bike 3 months ago and now it needs an oil change but I'm kind of mechanically inept. I need a step by step how to and also a link to where I could purchase a filter that would fit...although I'm still not sure if it has a filter...It is an air cooled engine if that is helpful...Japanese 150cc Motorcycle oil change and filter how to?Spaz,



    how about the type of bike, like yamaha vstar 1100 2003 or the like.

    all of them are different, however, you will basicly warm bike up for a few minutes (Not hot, just warm)

    remove a drian plug and allow oil to drain into a pan (Not the floor)

    remove oil filter cover and oil filter, tosss out old filter, put in new filter, re install oil drain plug, fill with x quarts of oil, start bikr=e for 3 minutes, shut off recheck oil level and wham, your done.

    The unit you're referring to is the oil cooler, and it is very highly likely held in place by either an allen bolt right up the center of it, or a thin nut screwed onto the threaded post onto which the oil filter screws, both of which are accessible after first removing the oil filter.



    The seal is a rubber O ring.



    Regards



    GeordieHow difficult is it to change the oil filter housing seel on a vectra 1800 eco engine 1999?If you are talking about the seal behind the lump of metal that the oil filter screws onto, then its dead easy to do. Make sure you have drained the engine oil first before loosening the bolts that hold it in place.

    How much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?

    The guy told me i needed a more expensive synthetic type of oil. The oil change and change of %26quot;oil filter%26quot; cost a total of $158, is this right? or did i just get completely ripped off? Will those $30 oil changes work in my 2006 c230 ?How much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?Your engine was designed for synthetic oil. Among oher things, your car has an oil quality sensor and an onboard service reminder system that depend on you using synthetic lubricants. You should be changing the oil when the system tells you to. If you do this you can get 10,000 miles or more on an oil change, which offsets the high cost.



    Never trust a Mercedes to your local oil change place. Although there's really no rocket science involved, there are enough differences from domestic cars to baffle the kids who work in these places. If you don't want to use a dealer, at least take the trouble to seek out a qualified independent shop.How much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?The '06 C230 has the 2.5L V6 engine so it uses the synthetic fibre oil filter and 8 litres ( 8.5 quarts ) of synthetic engine oil. From a dealer, the parts alone will cost you around $100 so with labour and tax added, I'd say $158 sounds about right.



    The quick lube shops that advertise oil changes for 30 bucks wouldn't do your car for the same price. The reason is because of the high cost of that synthetic oil filter in your car. Even if you were to put in less expensive conventional oil, the price for an oil change would still be much higher.



    Here's another way of looking at it. Yes, oil changes are expensive but on a Benz, with their Flex Services schedule, you do oil changes much less frequently. So you pay more per service but you do them less often.How much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?The price isn't too far out of range, the dealer I work at has an oil change special that costs $95., including the OEM filter and the correct synthetic oil. For a carry-out customer we sell 8 quarts of oil and a filter for $94. plus tax

    The information you got is true, Mercedes has an exact specification for oil in the newer engines and you can't get it everywhere. It sounds like the shop that did your oil change is reliable and honest.How much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?they will work but you are supposed to use fully synthetic in all new engines just because it lubricates better and it makes the engine last longer. However it can cost around 9 dollars a quart as well. You can use a cheaper brand of synthetic though and it will usually work just as goodHow much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?At the MB stealership, or from local shop? Local shop synthetic Mobil 1 should only run you $60, with generic filter of course. Jiffy lube will run $20 on regular oil and get you out of there in 10 minutes. The filter may or may not be changed, but you'll be charged for it.How much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?you can take it to another place to have changed the synthedic oil changes run $50,00 I know because this is what i do with my merdedesHow much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?Depending if its a Dealer or an Independent Shop ,they range from

    $40.00-$60.00 in a shop



    Then;



    $70.00-$125.00 in a Benz Dealer due to their Genuine Parts and specialty..How much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?Yes, to both questions. You are being ripped off and $30 will do just fine.How much is an oil change supposed to cost for an '06 Benz?Yes to both

    What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?

    without changing the oil filter ? but the more important question to me is how does a dirty oil filter affect the car. thanksWhat are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?Change the filter every time you change the oil. Oil filters aren't expensive and are cheap insurance over more costly repairs if you don't change them and they fail as a result.



    Most oil filters have a %26quot;bypass%26quot; valve on them so that in the event the filter element clogs completely, the oil will bypass the filter element entirely to make sure your engine gets oil. Dirty, unfiltered oil is better than no oil at all in the short term, but over time if the filter is just bypassing instead of filtering, you're going to have increased wear to your engine as a result.What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?Dirty oil filters will clog oil flow and spread gunk around the engine. You should change the filter with every oil change and only use synthetic oil. Synthetic costs more but your engine will run for a lot longer and need a lot fewer repairs. It pays off in the long run, big time.What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?it keeps the oil clean, if you don't it will shorten the life of the motor.What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?Well the filter takes some impurities out of the oil but your oil still breaks down over time. Oil filterss only last a certain amount of time so not changing your oil or filter could damage your engine over time.What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?why would you not change the oil filter. its like 3 bucks. change it every time you change the oil.What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?If your main question is does it make sense to change the oil, with out changing the filter, then no. The clean oil you just put into your motor is going throw a clogged up dirty filter giving you poor oil flow, and pushing dirty oil from the filter into the engine blcok. Which could lead to poor lubrication of the cylinder walls causing friction and eventually ruining your engine, along with numerous smaller problems.What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?you need to read the owners manuel and gheez use some common sense change the oil install synthic oil and an fram filter for gosh sakes think will you please you do it every 3000 to 5000 miles and you do the filter also at that time its like taking a bath you dont just do behind you , you do all of you good luckWhat are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?The big risk is of it clogging. If it clogs, the oil won't circulate as it should. Aside from that, in most cars the filter holds a significant amount of oil, or at least enough to taint the new oil that you're putting in. It's very difficult to get all of the oil out when doing an oil change, not changing the filter just leaves that much more dirty oil in the engine. I'd spend the three bucks.What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?YES CHANGE THE OIL!!!!!!!!!! Gees lady, the car will smell like burned oil, there will be spots where youve parked. The motor will run down fast with dirty oil. The filter will clog.The oil AND oil filter have to bve changed every 3,000 miles. It only cost about 12$ to purchase the oil and filter.Or else take it to a oil changing station and they will do it for about 25$ or less. Also, you must make sure your car has water %26amp;or coolant in its radiator or else the motor will blow today!What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?Your question is not clear but,I think you are asking about changing oil without the filter.Imagine taking a bath in dirty bath water. Some filters hold a qt of oil.So by not changing it you have added 1 qt of dirty oil to your new oil....yuck.....whats the point. And the old filter is full of gunk and particles and not as free flowing as a new one.Is does not make sense. In theory you could skip changing the filter 2-3 times before it failed but,what is the point??????What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?You should change the oil filter on each oil change. But it is not imperative. All modern oil filters have a bypass that allows the oil to flow if the filter becomes clogged. Your oil will get dirtier quicker because the debris (microscopic level) are not being filtered. how quick depends on the condition of your engine, driving habits, driving conditions, etc.



    There was a time when folks changed their oil filter every other oil change. Oil filters are so cheap that it makes little sense not to change them when changing the oil. Sort of like taking a shower and putting on dirty clothes.What are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?you should always change the oil and filter together it would be like taking bath and putting on the same dirty socks.... you should change the oil every 3000 or so miles the more offen the better.... a oil change worth 25 buck but a motor or new car is 1000's you decide.. the oil filter does what it sound like it filters the oil it removes the medal particles which harms your motor .. and really no symptoms other than your motor stops workingWhat are the symptoms of dirty oil filter and does it make sense to change the engine oil?a dirty oil filter can affect your car in many ways and cause it to lock up youre best bet is to change oil and filter every three thousand miles

The fuel filter isnt under the hood. so i guess it's under the car.How do i change fuel filter on 1991 buick park avenue?Yes, the fuel filter is located under the car close to the fuel tank. I believe that its on the driver side, but not sure. All you'll need is a 13/16 inch wrench and a 16mm wrench. Once you see it, you'll understand. The other side of the filter should have a black hose with a clear clip holding the gas line onto the filter. All you need to do is push the clear clip together to release it. Also, you may want to remove the gas cap before doing this so that the fuel system won't have pressure on it.

    How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?

    I use semi-synthetic oil, which is good for about 10000 km (15000 miles?). But the last time, I told them not to change the oil filter. %26quot;There's no ned to change it verytime%26quot;, I said. Now I'm worried about it. Can I have real problems because of it? Should I go and chnage the filter before something wrong happens? Or is it just a detail and you don't really have to change it everytime you cnage the oil? Thanks.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?It's false economy not to change it. You're talking under $10 at the most. (More likely $3 to $5) If you don't change it, you introduce dirty oil back into the system when you start it up since that trapped in the filter doesn't drain out.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?Changing the filter is the most important part of an oil change. If you don't change the filter, you might as well not change the oil. The filter traps metal shavings and deposits so they don't travel through your engine and damage it. If it is full, it can't do it's job.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?first of all there is no oil would last 15000miles unless its a full synthatic and it has to be mobil oil. anyway you should change the filter eveytime you change the oil.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?well you know that an oil filter only costs a few dollars and yes i would change it when i did a oil change as for now? you would be good to change it but remember to put some oil in filter before you replace it back to motor to keep from having aditional wear on parts that need oil as soon as engine cranks. check level after changeHow necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?Changing Oil is the MOST inportant thing you can do for your car or truck. Most filters are not that exspensive and should be replaced the sametime the oil is. It can cause problem down the road.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?Its more important to change your filter. If you have extended life oil I would change just the filter every 5000 miles.

    The filter is removing the contaminants that build up in the oil.

    %26quot;Quote from Oil change interval article%26quot;

    This is the most controversial aspect of using synthoils. Because most of them cost $5 per quart or more, it gets very expensive to change them as often as petro-oil, and it's not really necessary. However, car engines are subject to condensation and accumulate particulate matter, both of which contaminate the oil. If you want to extend your oil change intervals, do your homework on both air and oil filtration. Air filtration affects the particulates which enter the engine, and the oil filter is your only defense against particulates and contaminants. Major aftermarket brand names in filtration include Amsoil and K%26amp;N, and web searches will provide information for you. (This is not a brand pitch - but you have to know what to look for.) Amsoil says you can run their synthetic oil one year if you also use their oil and air filtration; they also sell kits you can use to have their lab test your oil if you want to see how far you can run it before it actually needs to be changed.

    Quote fro article on synthetic oils.

    %26quot;For many years, I have run each change of synthetic oil for a year, changing the filter at six-month intervals. That's my own guess at what's reasonable for me, running a used car about 10K miles a year.%26quot;How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?As a former automotive instructor, we had performed expirements on engines regarding oil and filter changes. We had a number of engines that clocked in well over 200K miles where only the oil filter was religiously changed. It showed that the most critical part of the equation was the filter. With today's technology on developing extended mileage oils, oil is not the issue. Removing dirt and contaminats from the engine is the surest way to get long life. Changing the filter ALWAYS is the best approach.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?first of all a km is .61 miles so its good for about 6100 miles not 15000. second ALWAYS change your filter with every oil change. also about every third oil change its probably a good idea to have your air filter changed as well. i would say just this once wont cause you problems just check your oil every other week or every week if it uses oil and keep it full if it starts looking dirty then have it changed with the filterHow necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?If anything, you should change the filter more often than the oil on extended oil change intervals.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?You are going to get alot of different answers on this. Some say change it. I personally think you should change it every other time. Chevy s-10 260k. And still going strong. If there is one thing I would tell you is never listen to a mechanic. Go on your own gut feeling. Remember mechaincs are out to make money.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?The company can tell you anything to sell you the product. Where will they be when your engine calfs. Not a good idea to leave the oil that long. The oil base does not break down, however the engine will accumulate sludge %26amp; contaminates that will break down the additive within the oil. I would recommend the oil be change as prescribed by the engine manufacturer. Keeping the engine free of sludge %26amp; deposits is your #1 concern, not by claims by the lubricant company.



    The oil filter should be changed ever time the engine oil is changed. It makes no sense on pumping a pint of cruddy oil into your fresh oil.How necessary is it to change the oil filter everytime you change the oil?I had an opportunity to talk with a Fram Filter rep. not long ago. One of the things I learned from him was that the paper element in the filter will become 'fatigued' and will colapse. This depends on the quality and construction of the filter too. Once the filter is clogged or has colapsed, the oil is rerouted to bypass the filter.

  • How often should I change the oil and how often should I change the oil filter?

    I only drive a few blocks each day to catch the bus. And I hardly drive my car after work. Should I still change the oil every 3 months? What about the oil filter?How often should I change the oil and how often should I change the oil filter?If you only drive a few blocks every day (let's say 2 miles round trip), that means you probably accumulate perhaps 50 miles per month - a very, very low amount of miles.



    I suggest that once a week, you drive your car on a short trip, for at least 30 miles or minutes, to get the engine into its normal operating temperature range and to evaporate any water that accumulates in your oil pan during the week.



    Water gets into your oil from condensation every day as the air - including water vapor - in the oil pan cools down. This water combines with combustion byproducts (NOx) and any sulfur in the oilor unburned gas will form weak acids, which are not good for engine bearings and other critical metal surfaces. Most good oils have buffers which, for the most part, neutralize the acids. But eventually they will be consumed and any acids in the crankcase oil can start to cause corrosion problems.



    My suggestion is to drive 30 minutes every weekend, and change your oil %26amp; filter per your mfr's recommendations -- on the time-based schedule. (You don't put enough miles on your car to use the mileage-based schedule.)



    And change your oil filter on every oil change - it's cheap insurance and you will be ensuring that as much as 1 quart of dirty, used oil is removed when the old filter is replaced.How often should I change the oil and how often should I change the oil filter?My come back for this frequent question is this %26quot;If oil can sit in the ground for millions of years why can it not sit in your engine for more than 3 mos/3000 miles.

    The answer is %26quot;of course it can%26quot; Todays motor oils are heavily engineered lubricants that resist breakdown better than anytime in automotive history. These ideas and standard are put out there by the auto manufacture and oil companies who have been i bed together since the first Ford was built.



    The type of driving you mention would allow me, if Iwere your mechanic, to guide you into a different king\d of thinking. I would have you watching the color of the motor oil, looking for a loss of translucency which is evidence of oil break down and suspended particles. When the dip stick showed dirty oil change it and the filter.

    The motor never reaches maximum temperature to drive off and evaporate water condensation in the crankcase. Poor piston ring seal when the motor's cold probates cylinder wash down with raw fuel. This causes gum varnish and oil sludging build up.

Regulsr multi-viscosity 5W-30 pours @ - 35 below zero Farenheight. It flashes to fire at + 400 degrees F.



    Ground crude is only a very minimum starting point in the production of everything oil related. Grease, oil, tar, wax, naptha, kerosene, #1 %26amp; #2. home heating and diesel fuel, mineral spirits, acetone, xylene, propane, butylene, gasoline, and others are cracked from the valuable black slop from under the earth's surface.



    In the fall change the oil and filter. In the dead of the winter shorten the drain and filter changes to once every 4 months regardless of mileage. If you didn't drive your car at all it would be fine to let it go six months. If your car calls for 5,000 mile oil changes by all means do it in the summer.



    There's a way around frequent oil changes during winter months and that's by switching to a full synthetic 5W-30 motor oil year round. Most new cars today call for 5W-20 year round.



    lubricating and filter changes are cheap insurance when you do it yourself. While on the filter subject NAPA filters are made by the Wix Company. AC Delco and Purolator are the only ones that are remotely close. Your car is the second most valuable item you own.

    every 5000 miles if you use full synthetic(not synthetic blend) and it should be about 3000 miles if you use regular dino oil :)

    How do I change the oil filter on my 1981 Honda Hawk?

    I recently purchased a 1981 Honda Hawk CB400T. It's buring al ittle oil and the clutch is shifting a little hard. I am going to take it in to get some stuff looked at but wanted to know how the heck I change the oil filter on it? I've already purchased an oil filter, just need to know where the old one is. No this isn't my first bike either.



    ThanksHow do I change the oil filter on my 1981 Honda Hawk?The oil filter is in the square cover on the bottom of the crankcase.

    Don't even think about removing the bolt, without a 6 point wrench!!!! The bolt is soft aluminum. Don't loosen it with a socket either. It can easily slip off.

    The cover has 2 little tabs. They're to line up the cover when

    re-assembling and to keep the cover from turning.

    When you remove the filter, check for the washer. They like to stick to the filter.

    Lube the o-rings of the new filter and screw it on to the oil filter bolt. Sometimes if you just push the filter on, the rubber breaks off the filter.

    How to change oil filter and fuel filter in Astra 1.7 DTi?

    I've a 2001 Astra 1.7 DTi LS 16V diesel. I plan to do the oil, oil filter and fuel filter change myself on the car. I've all the parts.



    I think the OIL FILTER is in a housing just behind the engine and close to top, which needs to be opened with a spanner and the oil filter is a paper cartridge type filter inside.



    Regarding the FUEL FILTER, there is another plastic housing with a torx screw on top, is this the fuel filter? The new fuel filter is a paper type too which I think would go into its housing.



    Do I need to bleed the system after I install new fuel filter?

    Is there any special thing I need to take care while removing and installing fuel filter?

    Renault megane needs oil filter change? How much?

    Hi whilst driving my 2003 renault megane yesterday,a messege flashed up saying Change oil soon.I checked my oil,and its between the max and min mark.So i called Renault and they said it needs a oil and filter change.Im just wondering whether as Renault are pricey,if i would be better taking it too any garage.But i will need the messege to be reset after.What do you think? And how much would this cost at Renault? ThanksRenault megane needs oil filter change? How much?Hi Donna,



    The message comes up at preset times which are normally after set intervals of time or after a certain number of miles.

    Depending on your model of Megane, the message will come up before every 17,000 miles or 23 months ( servicing schedule 2 years or every 18,000 miles whichever is sooner ), or every 12,000 miles and 1 year.



    Your level of oil doesn't matter - you change the oil in your chip or frying pan every so often because otherwise it becomes horrible, it is the same with a car engine.



    I guess your car needs an actual service. It is outside it's warranty now, so you can take it wherever you like really, a private garage will be cheaper than a dealer. I personally use a Renault Dealer, because a) I trust this garage and b) If I didn't already have experience of them, I would be more confident they would do a proper job.



    I can't give you a cost for servicing, because it depends which service it needs.



    These links from the Renault Megane owners club are discussions about the message you've had appearing, so you may find them helpful/interesting. The last link gives details on how to reset the %26quot;change oil soon%26quot; message.

    Suggest you check within your handbooks whether your car needs a service. If you think it does need an oil and filter change its only a small job, so suggest a private garage does it ( it shouldnt be too expensive ) and you can reset the message following the instructions in the above link, if they don't reset it for you. If it needs a full service, take it to a dealer or somewhere you trust!

    How to change oil filter?

    What %26quot;special%26quot; tool do I need to change the oil filter on a 1996 Honda Prelude.How to change oil filter?A filter wrench. A drain plug wrench and a catch pan to collect the used oil. After removing the used filter, check to be absolutely sure that the oil filter seal came off with the filter. I have one car that for some reason 4 times out of 5 the seal stays stuck to the adapter - which if not noticed and removed prior to installation of the new filter is Guaranteed to cause a sudden massive and total loss of the oil in the engine which will result in engine self destruction if it happens under load at highway speed! Clean off the adapter mounting surface, apply a film of oil to the seal of the new filter and attache it, tightening it hand tight - if difficult to get a good grip on the filter to tighten it, you can use the filter wrench to give it an extra 1/8 to 1/4 turn after it is snug. Remove the crankcase drain and remove the remaining dirty oil. When the draining oil trickles to a drip replace and moderately tighten the drain plug and refill the crankcase with the correct type and quantity of oil. Start the engine and verify that the engine generates normal oil pressure within 5 seconds of starting, and immediately look under the engine to be certain that the filter seal is good ( no cascade of oil running onto the ground ). Place the car back onto a level surface, turn the engine off for a few minutes and double check the oil level.How to change oil filter?a filter wrench to loosen the filter and a socket wrench to loosen the drain plug.

Wait till the filter is cool enough.How to change oil filter?You may not need any special tool apart from a wrench or socket to get the drain plug off. For the filter itself, depending how tight it is. You can typically just use your hand. Or if it seems really tight, getting an oil filter wrench will help.

    How often do I need to perform the Oil & filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?

    I Have a Subaru Legacy sedan 2001. On my last Oil change, I replace from natural oil to synthetic oil. If I use synthetic oil, How often do I need to change the Oil %26amp; filter of my car???How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?Every engine is in different condition. If you really want to know how long you can go between changes, you need to have an oil analysis done by someplace like Blackstone Labs. It's cheap and they will give you a detailed printout of what's in the oil and how long you could go with it. Otherwise just use the manufacturers recommendation. They do way more research then anyone here so don't listen to online advice. It's not their car they don't really care. Just because I go 6000 miles between changes, doesn't mean your car will like the same. If you don't know how to see over time what interval works for your engine, listen to Subaru.How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?Depends on the oil you used. Typically Subaru tells you that every 3750 miles you should change the oil. Follow the manufactures specs and you shouldn't have any issues.How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?Oil filters are only good for 3,000 miles. Just use regular motor oil and change it every 3,000 miles. I love it when people wonder why the motor is tarnished up and throwing codes even if they switched to Mobil 1. There plugged up oil filters weighed 3 times more than it should have.How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?Synthetic oils out perform regular oil and as a result have a longer life, I have a 2001 Forester with 140k on it and I have been using synthetics for the last two years with an interval of 5000 miles, My engine is still in perfect condition. I use Mobil1 high mileage which says it is good for 7,500 miles, so I am being a little conservative.How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?I bought my 1997 Subaru Legacy Outback (2.5 litre) new, and have been using Valvoline Durablend synthetic/natural oil mix in it from scratch (As recommended by the Dealership where I bought the car). I change the oil and filter every 5,000 miles. The owner's manual calls for a 7,500 mile interval. At 139,500 miles my Subie neither leaks nor burns a drop of oil between changes. I have had to do absolutely no repairs to the engine.



    Now, I do put Mobil 1 in my Porsche 911 Turbo S, but then that's the single recommended oil for Porsches. And, you know, that car cost as much as six Outbacks. With Mobil 1 and a Porsche filter, their recommended interval is every 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first.How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?You should always change your oil and filter at the same time. With that said, you should change your synthetic oil every 3k-5k miles. You can get away with running it for longer then that, but just to be safe I would stay in that range. Oh and when going synthetic make sure you go full synthetic and not blend. Blend can have a very wide percentage range of actual synthetic in it, and if you are gonna use blend you mine as well just use regular oil.How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?I personally have never heard of changing the oil beyond 3,000 miles. On that note: It is usually a rule of thumb if you will to get the oil(be it dinosaur made or man made) changed every 3,000 miles at the least. That includes the oil filter too. Never skimp on the good filters for your oil either! The better your filter, the cleaner your oil will be! Also, when you change your oil, check to see if the oil coming out of the oil pan feels as if it's got grit in it. If it feels anything other than oil, you should get the engine checked out properly by your mechanic as soon as possible!How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?I would say every 3-4k miles. and try to use rotella t 5w-40 if you live in a warmer climate.How often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?i have an 08 WRX and use Mobil 1 synthetic and change the oil every 7k miles. I also have a cold air intake which means I never have to change the oil filter. Now, your car is not high performance and you may not need synthetic since it is more expensive, and it may not be worth getting a cold air intake, depending on the miles and how long you plan on keeping it. If regular oil, 3k miles or a little more and it should be fineHow often do I need to perform the Oil %26amp; filter change for a Subaru legacy sedan 2001.?IF you are using Mobil 1 EP, it can go as far as 10k before I, personally, felt the difference.



    Typical Syn. Oil can go around 5k to 8k, depended on how you drive the car, is that a daily or a track racing car...



    The filter usually changes when you do the oil change.



    However, you need to look at the labels on the backside of the Syn oil to make sure it is Synethic instead of a Blend of bulk/syn. There are some manufacturer claims that their Syn Oil is Synethic but the test limit did not even pass the standard tests...so watch out.

    Possible to change oil filter without changing oil?

    I have a Toyota Camry 1989. It is leaking oil so I put about a quart in every month. The oil is therefore pretty clean, but it's time to change the filter. Is it possible to change the filter without draining the oil? How? (I'm assuming it's not too hard to change oil...)



    Also, would it be bad to drain the oil, change the filter, and put the oil back in again?Possible to change oil filter without changing oil?Do the full oil change. If you change just the filter you'll make a huge mess and lose a lot of your oil anyway.



    Read the car manual to find out how much oil and what kind you need and buy that much and an oil pan and bucket and oil filter at the store.



    Get out the wrenches, roll of paper towels, and all the other stuff you just bought. Take off the top oil cap (where you normally put in oil), put the oil pan under the car where the screw is for the oil and then loosen it and then hand undo the rest (watch out for the washer - don't let it drop!) and let it drain into the pan (this will take a few minutes.) Meanwhile use paper towels to wipe off the screw and washer. Set aside. Once it's drained, reach up under to where the oil filter is and undo this (this could be a little messy even with it drained) - you may need a special oil filter wrench to loosen this. Dispose of this. Put the screw and washer back in TIGHTLY. Get the new oil filter, put a thin coating of oil along the top where it screws in (use your finger to put this oil on) and then put it on where the old one came off of and screw it on as tight as you can. (You can use the wrench to make it tighter if you want.) Now you just add the new oil to the top. (Put in as much as your manual says to.) Run the car, and check the level to make sure it's okay. Add if needed.



    Voila! Oil changed.



    Empty the oil pan into the bucket and take it to some place that recycles it.Possible to change oil filter without changing oil?The oil can be changed without changing the oil. Be sure to check the oil level after changing the filter and starting the car. Since you're going to have to get under the car to do this, you might as well just drain the oil from the engine and do the job right with a full oil change%26gt;Possible to change oil filter without changing oil?It would be advised that you do both. The filter catches the bad or dirty particles in the oil but it doesnt do it all. Also you may want to replace the pan and gasket if thats where the leak is coming from. With the car almost 20 yrs old, that gasket is probably worn outPossible to change oil filter without changing oil?You're going to have a big mess and waist a lot of your good oil if you pull the filter without draining it first.



    You can reuse the same oil if you make sure your drain pan is clean and no debris falls into it while you're down there removing the drain plug.Possible to change oil filter without changing oil?If you wish a new filter just remove the existing one and put on the new one. There will be some oil loss when you take off the filter, only a small amount, so have something to catch it, a large rag will do. You will need to add one quart of oil after the new filter is installed.Possible to change oil filter without changing oil?You do not need to drain the oil to change the filter. Just replace the filter, start the engine let it idle for a moment, shut it off and add oil to the high mark on the dipstick.Possible to change oil filter without changing oil?Absolutely! I learned this back in the mid 60's. I drove a company truck (Chevrolet) for an older gentleman who NEVER changed oil. We put a LOT of miles on these trucks and ended with over 200,000miles.



    He said that the oil doesn't break down, it just needs to be cleaned. We would change the filter (the oil was black), add the new filter and a quart of oil. After driving 2/300 miles you could pull the dipstick and the oil would be as clean as new oil from the can.

    How do you change an oil filter in a scion?

    Oil filter is inverted in the scion. Do you have to empty oil from engine before removing filter? I changed oil last week, but didn't have right size filter wrench. Now I want to change the filter. Do I have to re-change the oil?How do you change an oil filter in a scion?No, you don't need to change the oil, unless you drove 2000+ miles in the last week ... The oil in the oil pan will not be affected by removing the oil filter, the engine needs to be running for the oil pump to push oil to the filter. The filter in your Scion holds less than 1/4 of a quart (including the oil in the line). After replacing the filter, start it until you see oil light on dash go out (check filter for leaks), turn it off - check oil level. A good rule of thumb to remember - always better to be a little low than a little over full (the crosshatched area on the dipstick is 1 qt) 1/4 qt shy is better than 1/4 qt over... But, you will hurt nothing by changing only the filter at this time. It is, however, better, to change both at same time in future...How do you change an oil filter in a scion?Ideally both oil and filter are changed concurrently, but it's not required. Oil filter will contain some old, dirty oil. As such, you want to change the filer when changing the oil; otherwise the dirty oil will escape from the filter and end up back in the engine.



    The reason I say it's not required is because the oil amount in the filter is very low, so it will not do much harm. Also, some filters do not even have anti-drainback valves.



    In your case, however, you may indeed need to flush the oil if the filter on your Scion is below the oil level in the oil bin, although this is rare. Do a visual check of your Scion to see if the filter is above or below the oil bin. If it's above, you're safe in changing the filter by itself.How do you change an oil filter in a scion?I would its like taking a shower without soap. Oil is cheaper than steel and why put a new filter on without changing the oilHow do you change an oil filter in a scion?i worked at a dealership. no you do not have to empty the oil pan first,also get one of those claw oil filter wrench, it works best.also when your done start the car and check the oil level you may have to add some for the new filter.
