For those wondering, the oil filter housing takes a 32mm socket. You'll want a low-profile one because a regular socket won't have enough clearance.

Precisely what I was wondering thank you. Why Chevy does this we may never know

Thank you Sir because of you and your very instructional video I was able to change my own oil.

Very helpful for locations of the bolts, filter etc. Thank you.

Appreciate the video. Was able to do it very easily with your information this morning in under an hour. Thanks!

Thank you! Did my first oil change today!

Thank you for this video. U explained everything which is great for me that I have never done a filter toward the top of the engine.Also,We save alot also going to Walmart for the oil and filter.I sub.

Very informative! Thank you for the walk through.

This was a BIG help, thank you! 😊

Thanks man just played Dad for me🤣🤣🤣💯

Great video, thanks for putting the time into making this, it was really helpful.

Thank you for the walkthrough :D

Makes a big difference which brand of filters u use ; some filters leave wads of filter media in the oil holes of the cam journals on ecotec

Thank you guys!

No crush gasket on the engine oil plug?

VERY INFORMATIVE SIR!!👍💯😎

That filter looks like same that went in my grandmothers cobalt with the 2.2l ecotec

I usually fill the oil to the dip line, start the vehicle and let it run for a second, then check oil and fill as needed. Usually 4.7 quarts.

Great Video, Thanks!

Does it matter the oil filter you use if you are using synthetic oil

Good job! And thank you

Thank you shit that's all I been trying to find is that part number for the filter

Good video

Holy shit this guy has 3 hands!!!

Were are you at. Here in Hot Springs, AR you can get the AC Delco Synthetic blend oil change at the dealer for $38.00 and Ac Delco Dexos1 Full Synthetic Oil change for $68.00.

not gonna learn much at all from looking at filter regarding metal frags....if it looks dirty as it should than its doing its job....and needs replaced..but thanks for your video..you did a great job and helps people out..all I needed to know is where the oil filter was...new for me regarding new style filters...thanks again

Not really true. Excessive metal frags in oil filter will tell you if your engine bearings are damaged, piston ring is damaged, oil filter is defective or if there has been friction from poor oil maintenance.

That gm oil filter is collapsing from the synthetic oil...Get a mobil1 Amsoil, K@N or Fram Synthetic media top of the line filter...Fram synthetic oil filters are top notch..All have Synthetic media for Synthetic oil... Gm filters are ok for Conventional or semi synthetic oil..But not Full Synthetic or 100% synthetic

I thought these cars have to run dexos oil nothing else??

@ViperJay5

5 жыл бұрын

Dexos isn't an oil, it's GM's standard for oil. Any oil that is 5w-30 and has the Dexos logo on the bottle will be just fine. Mobil 1, Valvoline, Pennzoil, doesn't really matter. As long as they have the Dexos logo on the bottle, you're good to go!

This engine has a lot of problems the trans burns quickly and a lot of moisture gets into the engine.

Synthetic oil is great for these cars, it's when you get to a car that is actually old (pre 1990) that synthetic oil is a problem.
