      Hey Muffin 101485! Thanks for watching & be sure to subscribe if you haven't done so already! Oil changes are pretty easy. You don't save a lot of money by doing it yourself, but you do have peace of mind that it was done properly with good quality oil and a good quality oil filter! Thanks for the support and let me know how the job goes for you!

    I appreciate knowing how to deal with that different oil filter - no wonder I couldn't find any sign of a filter under the car! Good info on resetting the Oil Life monitor too. Thanks.

    Make sure you tell them about the jackstand.. Many of us are too dumb to remember

    • @WorkingWithWimberley
      @WorkingWithWimberley  3 роки тому

      Lol! You’re correct, but in order to keep these video short and sweet, I usually don’t include the obvious, like how to remove a tire or how to jack up a car. If they aren’t handy enough to handle that, they really shouldn’t be attempting any of these repairs.

  • @brefolizer8153
    @brefolizer8153 Рік тому +1

    I had a great time my oil bolt was on there so tight and it was stripped so I had to buy easy outs to even change my oil. And on top of that I couldn’t even get my filter off because it’s on there too tight as well.

    • @WorkingWithWimberley
      @WorkingWithWimberley  Рік тому

      That happens sometimes. If the last person to do the oil change got carried away, it makes it tough for the next guy.

    Changing my oil as we speak, when adding the new filter does it need to like snap in? I have it on but I can easily pull it off is that just how it goes in or should it not be wobbly?

    • @WorkingWithWimberley
      @WorkingWithWimberley  Рік тому

      I’m not sure if it “snaps” but it should seat at the bottom. I think mine did wobble a bit.

    Hey I got that Lucas oil stuff do u think I should put it in with the new oil I’m about to change with the filter or should I just change the oil

    • @WorkingWithWimberley
      @WorkingWithWimberley  8 місяців тому +1

      I’ve never used any Lucas oil additive. If you’re using a good quality full synthetic oil, you should be fine. I would look up the reviews of whatever additive you have.

      It doesn’t matter. I just usually start with draining the oil first. It’s really up to you.

      I would check the air filter. A dirty air filter can cause poor gas mileage.
