After watching that whole video, I think you have the right idea having the dealer do it :lol:Lothsahn said:mwalsh said:It's a ton easier if you take the glove box out.
Understatement of the year. But actually funny to watch the video!

Other than the shakiness, which is understandable, I thought the video quality to be quite good, looked like a really miserable job :x
WHOEVER TELLS YOU YOU NEED TO CHANGE IT EVERY 2 YEARS IS LYING TO YOU BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I use a quality name brand oil, Valvoline, Havoline, Quaker State, (whatever brand name is on sale, conventional not the cheaper synthetic blend or the much more expensive fully synthetic) and for a filter I also use a name brand(not W/M generic type) generally Quaker state which my local Menards home improvement runs regularly on sale for $1.99 or $2.19. I used to change oil and filter regularly at 3k but changed to 5k(which is still less than some cars manual suggests for light use) after my last 2 ICEs('94 Geo Metro and '05 Scion Xb) died from one thing or another with a basically new engine. As I generally put less than 6k/year miles on my vehicles everything else wears out long before the engine of course I regularly check the oil level and if it starts looking quite black I'd change no matter what the mileage was.LeftieBiker said:.
Jjeff, if you are going to change your oil once a year, I suggest you use at least synthetic blend oil, and a long-life oil filter. Using a cheap filter and cheap oil may accelerate engine wear on that schedule (which I've used as well, in the past).
