ID: 154793

Description: In this guide, I will show all the necessary...

Steps:

1. On a flat, level surface, position the jack behind the front driver-side wheel so that it pushes the car up by the metal frame.
2. Place wheel chocks behind the front passenger-side wheel and the rear drive-side wheel.
3. Lift the car enough for you to be able to safely fit underneath it then fit the jack stand underneath it.
4. Place the jack stand next to where the jack is placed, and extend the jack stand so that it is right under the frame.
5. Gently lower the car so that it is resting all of its weight on the jack stand.
6. Keep the car jack positioned right under the frame as a back-up.
7. Do not get under the car if there is any other person or pet in the vehicle as this can cause the vehicle to fall, leading to serious injury or death.
8. For more information on how to lift the car with a jack and use jack stands follow this guide.

11. Place newspaper or rags beneath the oil drain plug to catch any potential
12. Center your oil drain pan on the ground beneath the oil drain plug.

13. With your 14 mm socket attached, use the socket ratchet wrench to loosen the oil drain plug by turning it counter-clockwise.
14. Once loose, use your hand to fully remove the drain plug.
15. You may want to wear latex gloves to avoid getting oil on your hands.
16. Wait a few minutes for the majority of the oil to drain into the pan.

17. Reinstall the oil drain plug.

18. Locate the oil filter behind the trim plastic on the passenger-side of the car.

20. Slowly remove the oil filter by hand, or with a strap wrench if necessary.
21. Allow the oil to drain from the oil filter into the drain pan.
22. Once most of the oil has stopped leaking from the oil filter, remove it completely.
23. Place old oil filter to the side on some paper towels to avoid spill.

24. Put some new or old oil on the rubber gasket of the new oil filter to create a better seal.
25. Screw on the new oil filter by hand until snug.
26. Be sure not to overtighten the filter, or it will be near-impossible to remove come your next oil change.

27. Remove the engine oil cap and place a funnel inside.
28. Slowly pour 4.9 quarts of SAE 5W-30 oil into a funnel placed in the oil fill hole.
29. Do not overfill with oil.

30. Pull the oil dip stick all the way out and, without checking, wipe it clean with a paper towel.
31. Place the dip stick back.

46. Gently pull the oil drain pan out from under the car with care not to spill.
47. Use a funnel to pour the used oil into an oil safe, sealable container if your oil pan is not sealable.
48. Allow 12-24 hours for all of the oil to drain out of the old oil filter.
49. Most auto parts stores and repair shops accept these at no charge to you. In addition, some cities and/or counties have a service where they will collect used oil and filters from your home. For more information, see the American Petroleum Institute's web page on used motor oil collection and recycling.
50. Do not dispose of the used oil in the trash or down a drain. It's terrible for the environment, and illegal!
