Also, whats the best advice for change the oil and the oil filter?How to change car oil?after reading your question i have to say....please take it to a garage and spend the $30. How to change car oil?The engine oil sump from where you want to drain the existing engine oil is located directly below the engine block. The drain plug is located at the lowest point of this oil sump



Remove this plug to drain the engine oil onto a container, and re-install the drain plug after that



Re-fill with engine flushing oil, and drive around until the engine is warmed up to normal temperature. Drain off this engine flushing oil, as well, and fix the drain plug back (make sure there is a gasket, if not make a customised one)



Remove the engine oil filter and install new engine oil filter. Re-fill with new engine oil (remember to use the right viscosity grade)



Test drive the car until the engine is warmed up to normal temperature



Park and check for oil leakage below the car (any leakage need to be rectified immediately before any long distance driving) How to change car oil?1.Un-do sump plug on %26quot;The Sump%26quot;

Its so easy its unbelivable, I suggest if you dont know how to do it, go to a garage so they can do it properly, you can have all sorts of problems if you mess this up.How to change car oil?The oil drain plug is located at the underneath of the car. It's a hex nut, pretty much close to the front. You won't miss it. It's a simple as undo the nut and drain out the oil. To replace the oil filter is a bit messy. You need an oil wrench to do the job.



Changing oil yourself is a fun job. You know what you put in and know what your oil looks like after 3000 miles.How to change car oil?the engine drain plug will be under the engine, and the drain plug for the tranny will be on the base of the tranny. Allthough I belive it is front wheel drive and will have a transaxle. My advice would be to locate both plugs or just got to the jiffy lube. You only save a few bucks changing the oil yourself.



Also dont forget the oil filter. A clogged oil filter can cause all sorts of damage.How to change car oil?its simple, on the bottom part of the engine is a big bit of metal, which also looks very hevay!!! - it is!!, - at the back of this big of heavy metal is the drain valve, it will look like a bit like a bolt, - it is!!!, in fact its a 13mm bolt!, unloosen this and all your oil comes out!!!, to put it back in use the dipstick on top of the engine, but remember to put the bolt in first!!!, simple as that, changing the oil filter, however,is another story!!!How to change car oil?This is very simple to do and find. your gonna wanna look for the oil pan that has the oil filter closest to it. when you find that get something to put your oil in. take of the bolt and drain the oil in what you are putting it in. after about 2 mins. take off the oil filter and drain and throw it out. after the oil is all gone put the bolt back on. Then get you new oil filter and get some old oil on the tip of your finger and rub it around the filter's seal. screw it on. then fill it up with your choice oil until it is at the right fill level. Dont worry if you do accidently drain the trans oil. its not gonna hurt it as long as you put new trans oil in. I would say that the best and cheapest oil filter is a Fram and get some gastrol gtx.How to change car oil?Changing oil is a messy job and not worth saving a few bucks by doing it yourself. There are shops that will do it fairly cheap. Be sure %26amp; have the oil filter changed too. It often takes a high quality oil filter removal tool. I change my oil %26amp; filter every 5,000 miles or so.How to change car oil?Okay, it's a lot simpler to show you than try to describe it. Get a mechanic to do it for you and ask if you can watch for future reference - this may not be possible in some garages as you aren't allowed in the workshop for H%26amp;S reasons.
