I just bought a 2021 Terrain, what oil should I use and when should I do my 1st oil change? Also if you know what is the proper tire pressure on this vehicle. TY

I want to change the oil in my 2020 GMC Terrain Denali 2.0, but I've already seen some videos where they put 4.7 L of oil like you did in the video and I've also seen others where they put 5.7 L like it says in the manual, so I don't know which of the two measurements to put. I need help 😮😅
No need for using clean oil on oil filter gasket … all you need is 1-2 dripps of old oil and that’s it .. it’s not going to go inside of engine and for some Miracle If did go an inside of engine there is still bunch old oil inside .. 1-2 drops won’t make a difference trust me I know what I’m doing
@@wadewacker7276 totally agree, great video!! Clean on clean though. I've worked on vehicles over 40 yrs and 10 of those at the dragstrip and if the owner caught me using old oil on a gasket on his dragsters or his mod he'd have ripped me a new one and I've always held my work to that kind of standard for the simple fact if anyone asks, I can honestly say I did my best. That oils already toast and has contaminants ( tiny metal shavings like all old oil does) and as it heats up especially here in Texas its just not optimal. Seal has to last and as most oils in newer cars are the better synthetics made to go further than old school oil, you know its gonna need to last longer under more heat. Also, its not mentioned but, this oil you're draining is either really, really cooked or you heated the engine 1st. Always a good idea, didn't see it in the notes but, even a newbie should have complete info. On a side note, I always find the direction the drain flows too and jack appropriately so if any shavings are present in the pan they wash into the catch and are easily spotted, never truly know what's happening in a motor short of removing the pan but, you can always advise folks as well to rub some old oil when its almost drained between clean fingers and feel for any grit. Better safe than sorry. I do that on all my vehicles, especially the higher mileage ones. I really appreciate this video being up, it tells me all tools I need and shows the service points and now that I'm disabled that saves me time in the Texas heat and thats priceless!! Keep up the hard work and I appreciate the content boy howdy!!

Never use dirty oil to lubricate the new filter. Take your new oil jug, break the seal, put the cap back on, tip the jug upside down, then use the oil collected on the underside of the cap.
Why? The oil lubricating the rubber seal never sees the inside of the filter so there’s no harm in using old oil. And besides, it’s such a small amount (we’re talking fractions of an ounce) that even if a tiny bit did seep in it’d hardly affect the lubrication of the engine.
Some people are clean with their work and some people settle for good enough. If they both assembled automobiles, which person would you want building your car🤔
@@wadewacker7276 apples to oranges. We’re talking about an oil change, not building engines. There’s more dirty oil still in the pan after draining than around the ring of an oil filter. If it’s not necessary, don’t preach it.
@@mharkapolinar5135 nobody does that Bro anymore ... they used to that back in 90s and 2000s early with turbo model cars only... No need to that anymore on newer cars ...
If you have a vertically mounted oil filter then yes it’s a good idea to pour fresh oil in before installing and if it’s horizontally mounted pour a little less oil in and let the element wick it up a little before installing👍 Bro it’s better for initial start up weather the vehicles were from the dawn of time to today 😂 just saying……….
Not only was this video helpful but after I watched it the first time I played it again just to hear that song once more! Great job!
Very helpful, bout to change the oil on my wifes Terrain
Excellent video! Thanks for putting this out there!
Let me known comments if you need any other specs for this car, example transmission capacity,Torque specs and etc....

Wrench size? 🔧 and do you have a specific oil you use? My wife also have a 2.0 2019
Every one who's talking about new smear in oil filter, you've never charged oil before.
Will you ever do a transmission drain and fill video. 🙂
Helpful video👍 But a little more cleaning on the oil filter surface mount and drain plug as well as using clean oil on the oil filter mounting gasket.

New oil filter and clean new gasket. I’ll use clean on clean. I also have changed oil and know what I’m doing too👍

Thank you
Awesome video
Thank you
Also, on these 2.0l Turbocharged engines make sure you prime the oil filter before putting it on.
Very special and clean work. 🌹
Excellent Video!!!
How long can I drive my car with the oil change light coming on my appointment is in 10 days
what is oil %?
@@AutomotiveDysfunction I will check it in the morning
My oil is at 8 %
@@rachelsmith1352 you still good .. just don't take 1000 mile trip somewhere lol
Quick question. Do you not prime your oil filter before installing with new oil?
No
Thanks for the video can you show me how to add transmission fluid in my 2019 Terrain.. thanks in advance..

What is the best typ of oil for a gmc 2018 terrain sl 1.5 2wd
0W-20 Full Synthetic 4.2 Quarts ( honestly it depends on your budget as for oil brands, there is lots of good oil brands out there whatever works for your budget, mobil1,castrol,valvoline,etc all good )
Amsoil is the best
@@jonathanrivera3480but unnecessary unless you plan to keep the car until 300k miles
How many miles until next oil change with synthetic oil.
5 000 miles on full synthetic
What did you spray on the oil pan and filter?
brake clean
Do you know what would cause these cars to make a weird noise at idle?
That’s hard to tell without looking at car it could lots of things
@@AutomotiveDysfunction I understand only does it at idle tho, whenever driving car sounds fine. Guess I’ll tear into it tomorrow

Keep in mind GMC decided to put a stupid ass bar in the way of the drain plug so you can't use a socket to do this. You have to use a wrench as shown.
This is 2.0l correct?
Yes all Info under description
Never mind I saw it 15 mm

Your right its not building engines and your better off with changing oil, stick with your sloppy workmanship👍
What about the remaining *old* oil left in the pan? Bro you don't even make sense. Shhhh
Wouldn’t you want to smear the engine filter with the new oil and not the old one?
Nope ...it don’t matter really ,a bit of oil stays on oil filter gasket , it doesn’t go inside of engine
@@AutomotiveDysfunction do you still have to fill the oil filter with new oil or is that just preference?
@@mharkapolinar5135 nobody does that
Bro anymore ... they used to that back in 90s and 2000s early with turbo model cars only...

PS, make sure the end of the oil filter with the holes is pointing up👍😂
Used a whole can of brake clean for a oil change lol
