5 QUARTS,, 5 QUARTS,,,,,, not 5 gallon 😂 My 2015 Chevy Equinox actually took 5 1/2 quarts to bring the dipstick to the full mark after running the engine and letting it set & settle. You also need the same 3/8 drive tools used by the video mechanic. 1.1/4 socket, swivel & extension as 1/2 drive tools , or impact sockets are too fat to get in there to loosen/remove the filter. Some GM engineer needs flogged for the filter placement. They couldnt have place it a tighter spot to get at. My 2015 Equinox also has a engine sensor right over the oil filter housing making it very difficult to get out. This video was excellent. Made changing my oil easy with the proper 3/8 drive tools. . Thank you. 😁👍

I use a one and a quarter inch ratchet wrench but you have to cut off the open end. Works way better than a socket. You can also mark your oil filter cap with a paint marker before you take it off so it matches up with the arrow by where the filter cap is that way you dont have to use a torque wrench.

they do need replacing after a while.

The thing I learned about owning an Equinox is that NEVER go by the oil life indicator. That's just a fail safe reminder just incase you forget to do an oil change. Do an oil change ever 3000-4000kms especially if you own a 2010 model with over 150,000k kilometers. It just helps your engine live a lot longer.
