Nooooo idea how the algorithm brought me your way, but as a Dad to two daughters, we just watched this video and I told my girls how THIS WAS SO REFRESHING TO SEE! May God continue to bless you always! Keep kicking ass! 😎
Hello, a work vlog video will be posted next week so don’t worry! I didn’t have enough time to film this week but I hope you guys are open to this different content. Have a great weekend!💌
I love how you take really good care of your stuff. It shows that you appreciate the things you've worked so hard for. I've even noticed that in your work videos like when you painted the rust on the truck. Really enjoy these videos Lexie
Super proud of you doing that yourself!! Not a lot of ladies would be down to change their own oil. You're an exceptional woman & any content from you would be interesting! Love it ❤
After getting an oil change for your BMW M2, I swear I heard it purr in appreciation. It's as your car is saying, "Ah, finally, a spa day!" With its newfound zest, it practically glides down the road, reminding me that even the sleekest machines need a little TLC. Now, I’m convinced my M2 deserves its own pampering session more often-maybe next time, a wax and polish too! hahaha.
haha the genuine pleasing smile when she removed the oil filter is priceless. i remember when i taught my younger sister how to change oil herself on her vw golf for the first time. she was so proud of herself and then just like that her face changed and she realized how much she was spending on maintenance when she could of been doing it herself hahahaha. i'll never forget that day and conversation after.
Great Job!! You Got This! You Go Girl, It’s A Lot Easier Then Most People Think!!! BTW; Thank You For Using Safety Jacks And Not Just Trusting The Floor Jack! Look How Clean That Oil Is.
Good job :) The first oil chainge is always the scariest one, after that its routine! Just one tip: You dont need to clean the oil filter housing. If you want to do it please use some cloth type fabric. The blue paper rolls tend to rip off small pieces (we actually had to replace a whole engine cuz a mechanic used them to clean a stripped engine
Great content and great to see changing your own oil, I try to teach my daughters the basics on their cars and how to check fluids , open hood , where spare tire is . One catches on but the other goes in one ear and out the other
Just watched your video, it’s always nice to change the oil yourself, as you are guaranteed it’s done properly. Also you are a very kind person for tipping the service person!
You did such a great job!! Doesn’t it feel amazing working on your own car? I always feel self accomplished whenever I work on my own car especially when I conquer the fear I experience doing it. Like when I would do my brakes! Haha I love your work vlogs but I really enjoyed this style too! It’s funny you posted it because I was going to ask if you would do a video for one of your days off and then boom, you made one ! So serendipitous 😄 This is easily my new favorite YoutTube channel, I always feel happier watching your videos cause your energy is just one of a kind and it’s so refreshing. Also, shout out to your brother for being such a good teacher!! I always appreciate and admire people who are so understanding and helpful especially when you’re doing something on your own for the first time. I also just realized I always write a mini novel for my comments hahahah
For the dust on the dash and back seats, use a microfiber towel and a brush. Use a brush to agitate dust, then vacuum. Be careful with the dash. Use a soft bristle brush to avoid scratches.
Great video Lexie!! I've been wrenching my cars, mostly Mercedes, for 40+ years and you did remarkably well for your first oil change! It's usually a hazmat event for the first time LOL. Great choice of fluids too, German cars love the LiquiMoly!
in New Zealand if you buy new tyres from a shop you get free puncture repair for the life of the tyres. keep up the good work, love your meticulous book keeping of your records! its obviously a traits learnt from home and it makes life so much easier from being organised with lunches to laundry to everything. to clean interior of your car use a small funnel with a long flexible tip and put your vacuum cleaner inside the funnel. it will make the perfect high powered vacuum for those nooks and crannies.
to clean out the gunk in your leather seats and vents is easy. you can buy cleaning putty which looks like slime and push it into the creases of your seats and air vents. you can also just buy any old soft paint brush and use that as well with a small vacuum hose to suck up any loose debris.
*F87 fam here from Boston!* 😊 *I would recommend putting one quart of oil in the oil filter housing next time. SLOWLY pour the oil in or it will overflow. I've got the M2 Competition with the S55.*
Lexie you did a better job with that oil change than they do at the dealership, every time I took my Bmw for service they left it all dirty, I like how you're making sure is all clean, great job.
This video was a nice change of pace. I love how meticulous you are about everything you do. You're always prepared with the tools/knowledge even if it's your first time doing something. I know you feel about a dirty vehicle. My black Mazda speed3 is the worst to keep clean lol...although I enjoy the grind to keep it clean. I'm still hoping to see that Candy Cane question in your next work video! Keep smiling pretty lady 😊
Great Job on doing your own oil. And when you buy nice tires, the tire shop usually has "Road Hazard" for your tires. That's basically a warranty for your tires. Can be replaced or patched at no cost and free lifetime balance + rotation as long as you get it done at the same shop you bought the tires from. But the replacement is usually up to like 70% wear on the tires.
I just pumped the oil out thru the oil fill tube (2004 325 XI). Just a hand pump from Harbor Freight. So much easier then messing with jacks and crawling under car which is dangerous. It does get all of the old oil out. Put 280,000 on that car. Still running strong till a deer took it out. So have no fears that this is not a good way. A lot of BMW owners do it this way.
Great job!! 2 things to help, check that big container, I think it's, 5.28 quarts, also another good thing to do is when your done, just start it, and see of there are any leaks, before you drive off. Oh, and no, it is not a good idea to overfill the oil. I am so happy to see your videos, and you doing things for yourself.
Use a hand held vacuum on your seats. It will suck all the debris up. You can also use it in your cup holders. For your vents use a small feather duster.
Good job on the oil change. It was very nice of your brother to help you out and observe while you did all the labor discount tire does all tire repairs for free as long as the tire matches their safety standards so try discount tire. In the future for tire repairs, I’ve been using discount tire for over 50 years. The best.
Lexie, nicely done and having your brother there just in case you had any problems, better that he is close by just in case! So neat and tidy very impressed with your desire to be that careful! I use and sell Amsoil as all their products are 100% Synthetic, but Liqui Moly is also an amazing product line, but not all there products are 100% synthetic, but I am betting that you checked all that. If you don't have access to an air compressor, just buy some detail tools, a small detail brush for your vents, seats, etc. But if you are going to clean the inside, don't use any products that have silicone in it, because that can travel far and onto your paint if you are applying it in windy conditions. Yet another amzing video Lexie, thank you!
They got this gel/putty stuff at autozone for the vents, most newer rides have little rubber inserts in the cup holder, easy removal for cleaning. Good job on the oil change..
Thank you, and you’re right I think they should teach this stuff in school, (how to… changing a tire, change oil, wash clothes, do taxes, build credit, etc) lol
@@lexflowaz it would be nice my driving school taught me that but I'm a 90s kid. Either way I really like your channel and I definitely will be on the list to send you something but I'm a goofball so it will probably be funny lol.
Hey Lexie, For the detailing on the paint try a clay bar kit, polish and wax, you can use and interior cleaner for the dash, trim etc... leather conditioner cleaner for the seats, also get a little soft brush to loosen the stuff in the seat lines the hit it with the leather cleaner conditioner... I like the ultimate line from Meg uiars , had to put a space in the brand name so it is not spam... good work...
Great job and good on you for learning. I work in a dealership and one tip for you would be use shop rags instead of paper towels especially when wiping inside the filter housing. Paper towels can tear easy and the fibres come off, you do not want any paper going through an engine. Trust me! Looking forward to your next video. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I use to have black truck but now have white AWD. White color vehicles easier to keep outside clean Black cars,, the surface dust/dirt & streaks are very visible & more work to maintain. That's cool ... 'variety' content with this video you posted! 👍 😎
All the way from the Great North, I would like to say that it's cool seeing a new type of video. It's awesome seeing a cool, gorgeous woman doing her own sh*t!😊
Get some good leather cleaner (Gyeon) and a brush you can connect to hand held drill for your seats. Once cleaned, take a microfiber towel and wipe excess. Gyeon has a mild and strong cleaner, depending on how dirty leather is.
If you haven’t already figured it out. You can use one those air pressure blowers like they have in the trucks to get dust and debris off you. They have them next to vacuums at the self car washes.
First, SAMBA life :) So props to your bro - you could hear he sounds super chill and has patience while he is teaching/helping out. I taught my daughter to do her car stuff, and now she teaches her man haha.
Awesome job Lexie. I have learned so much from your videos. I thought about driving a cement truck but after watching your vids I think I’ll stick with Frito Lay.
OMG i'm so glad you got a Proper Jack Stand for safety good girl ! I think it's great that your brave and safety minded a great example you are setting for others Bravo ☮🍁From Ontario Canada near the Niagara Falls 👍👍😎😎 Good Brother you have there !!
Good job... Things I do differently: I use cardboard instead of plastic to lay on. I change oil every 5k miles rather than wait for the recommended miles. Oil is cheap. Engines are expensive. Check/replace air and cabin filters with the oil change. I use leather cleaner/conditioner to keep the leather nice and supple. Use a soft brush to get into those crevices. Clean the seats every week to keep the grime from sinking in. I use Chemical Guys Leather Air Scent odor eliminator. Makes the car smell like new leather, and it eliminates rather than covering up the smell with live enzymes. Use Green Clean putty to get into the vents and cup holders. Finally, never rub the dust on the paint. It can scratch the clear coat.
For the seats use a messager or something that vibrates and use the vacuum at the same time you could use it for carpets 2 “ the vibration will make particles jump
That car is definitely you and you are owning the maintenance on it . A lot of people just say I don't know how to do that kind of stuff or i don't wanna get oil on my hands etc... but you belong with that car . Have a great day doll :))🥰
I know America’s Tire and a few other tire shops will patch the tire for free. Independent tire shops usually charge an average of about $15. When i worked for the lexus dealership tire patches were like 42 cents which is why they’re able to do it for free. If charged you’re mainly paying for the labor.
for the exterior, i use turtle wax hybrid solutions ceramic wash and wax. It cleans and leaves the car protected in one step. You can actually see the water beading, which is so satisfying 😂
This may not mean much but I'm so proud of you kiddo! great job. keep it up. also get a mini tripod for your camera. Glad you didnt drop the bolt/plug like I usually do. I had to fish for it later.
At America's Tire Co. the flat repairs are always free when the tire certs are purchased. And if they can't fix the flat, you get a free tire replacement.
Hola Mejia.. Alexis you did great. Note you have to have a BMW SCAN TOOL to reset your oil change interval counter in your KOMBI module.... lol... Ask your bro, I'm positive he can do it,, surely he has a proper scan tool.. you did right by using ALL factory items.. BMW are finicky and they demand only the best parts... Keep up the good work, you're going to go far and be a UA-cam star... I just watched the video and while I was. You were blowing up girl... Views were justa clicking and clackin.. STAY GOLDEN chica bonita.. ..🌺 Trent S Mt Shasta, California
Awesome to watch Your Videos,there's not nearly enough women truck driver's! I my self have my CDL class A but I've been a heavy truck and equipment mechanic for more years than I'd care to mention,Lol! Watching Yoy do all You do makes me Happy Every Time! I've worked on Front discharge cement trucks for about 6yrs! I think You'd Love those things as they're wild ss all hell to drive and operate from inside the cab! Good on You,You Beautiful little Sweetheart for all of Your Accomplishments ❤ You've got a Fan in Massachusetts!!!
Good Job on the oil change...! I used to do it on my previous VW cars, but I had a hard time trying to find a local store (Autozone) to take the used oil. Now I just take my car to my trusted mechanic near my work. I drop it off in the morning and walk to the office.
Good job being safe and using jack stands. Doing these its easy to get complacent and just lift the car with a floor jack but all it takes is one time for a accident to happen. We had a dude in our city who was working on his car just using the scissor jack that came with his car. Jack broke and collapsed on him. He passed away. :/
I highly recommend just getting an oil extractor as you don't have to do any of the dangerous parts of jacking up the car on jackstands and even taking out the oil drain bolt! My Mercedes Benz e55 also has its oil filter topside so I just insert an extraction down to the oil sump to get all the old oil out without doing anything more then just opening the hood!
I was going to sugest to use a hook pick to remove the O ring but you already knew that as well as removing the filler cap. I also put paper towels around the oil filter to keep oil from getting on the engine as well as around the funnel to absorb any oil spills when refilling it. When the old oil is mostly drained I put some new oil to chase out the old oil as much as possible. Good job on using wheel chocks and jackstands to keep the car from falling on you and. I knew a fellow who died when a car fell on him. Never trust a hydraulic jack to keep the car raised.
Holy cow. A woman changing the oil? I think you may be the 5th American girl to ever change oil. Keep it up. Great to see people actually doing something in life.
Couple of things, first of all, you are one smart girl, you just saved hundreds of dollars by doing that yourself compared to if you took it to BMW. Also, you have a beautiful concrete driveway, of course you would have tinted concreted, but just from that you must have a beautiful home. Your family has taught you well. Thirdly at 7K miles, that M2 is new, congrats, you show that if you work hard you can pay for nice things. You are very wise girl for your age, your parents should be proud! I knew that about the little tree, I like the basic Vanillaroma for my car. Look at you becoming a vlogger! Nice job!
Thank you for your comment! I love everything you said! And that’s true, a lot of people think I buying my car was a mistake which I know it isn’t a smart one either but it does teach you to be on time with paying every month! Have a great day
Nice work Lexie! I did mine a few weeks back, same car, same oil, same filter. I like the Michelin 4s…. Looks the you have the Michelin AS (all seasons) another great tire 👍
Thank you! And no way that’s cool! Do u post your car? And yea I had the Michelin pilot super sports but for some reason I decided on the all season this time😂😭
@@lexflowaz No I don’t post my car. I have the M2 Competition. Basically same car, yours sounds better. Mine is a 6 speed which I would have thought you might have opted for as you whip through the gears on your concrete truck. I noticed yours had low miles when you were doing the reset. Great score & love that it was your dream car 👍 Enjoy your channel - impressed with your abilities - you have a great work ethic and an apparent great family from what I have seen. Keep grinding ✌️
@@bmwgary i considered the m2 comp but only because I LOVED the hockenheim color, but ended up deciding on the m2 n55 after some research, my brother has s55 engine so I’m happy I went with base m2 n55, and yes I got it at 24k miles 1 previous owner! What color did you get? same white as me? And thank you for the kind words 🙏
@@lexflowaz The N55 is a great engine. I have a 335i n55 as well. You made a great choice!! I hunted for both in the middle of Covid when prices were sky high. I do have the Hockenheim which I love yet White was my first choice after I saw all the colors of the Comp side by side at a BMW track event and thought the white showed off the lines of the car best. I bought mine after a phone call from original owner with 12k miles. I flew to Michigan two days later and drove it 10 hours home (Connecticut) - So fun!! Wish you were closer to take her for drive… Keep it - don’t sell it (but update your file of receipts 😉). I think it’s an end of an era. The new ones are ugly IMO. Thanks for reaching back out - you are pure joy
I need to get those low profile ramps! I keep all physical copies of receipts and also keep a digital copy on google sheets. That way I have the info on hand if needed.
Your one bad ass chick and so smart beyond your years some of your outlooks on life took me almost 40 yrs to grasp tha concept of keep up tha awesome videos
Nooooo idea how the algorithm brought me your way, but as a Dad to two daughters, we just watched this video and I told my girls how THIS WAS SO REFRESHING TO SEE! May God continue to bless you always! Keep kicking ass! 😎
That's so awesome!! Thanks for the kind words!! 🙏
@ of course! And I forgot to give praise to your parents, for doing an AMAZING job in raising you!🫶🏼
Hello, a work vlog video will be posted next week so don’t worry! I didn’t have enough time to film this week but I hope you guys are open to this different content. Have a great weekend!💌
Actually they usually include free tire repair and tire rotations at most tire shops where you purchased the tires 😊
Oh dang I have been driving a cement truck for a few months now and I watch your work videos for pointers and inspiration see you next week😊
Gurl…show more off work vibes…eats, drinks, shopping! 😉
Anything with you in it… We good 🤠
loved it. u a baddie for that. one tip is you can pump the car up faster by lifting the jack handle higher.
12:21 if you tip the jug sideways the flow comes out smooth without all that gulping of the oil.
I love how you take really good care of your stuff. It shows that you appreciate the things you've worked so hard for. I've even noticed that in your work videos like when you painted the rust on the truck. Really enjoy these videos Lexie

🤣, Hi !! Lexie, the oil looks good I don't know on how many miles you change the oil. The best is now you know, good work. 👍
The old oil looked pretty clean! How many miles do you go between changes? Nice car btw…those M cars are sweet
Hopefully she does It at every 3k miles like you’re supposed to
@@1470boyz BMW M2 oil change interval is 10,000 miles or 1 year, but can can be reduced by condition based usage.

I like these Saturday uploads! Thanks Lexie!
So good! I think you double reset the oil service indicator. So you're gonna need another oil change before it tells you.
Yea, I need to do all that stuff to my car too🙆🏻♂️
Thank you for the motivation
Best looking oil change I’ve ever watched !
Good job...
Things I do differently:
I use cardboard instead of plastic to lay on.
I change oil every 5k miles rather than wait for the recommended miles. Oil is cheap. Engines are expensive.
Check/replace air and cabin filters with the oil change.
I use leather cleaner/conditioner to keep the leather nice and supple. Use a soft brush to get into those crevices. Clean the seats every week to keep the grime from sinking in.
I use Chemical Guys Leather Air Scent odor eliminator. Makes the car smell like new leather, and it eliminates rather than covering up the smell with live enzymes.
Use Green Clean putty to get into the vents and cup holders.
Finally, never rub the dust on the paint. It can scratch the clear coat.
Wow thank you for letting me know your secrets, Ima take all that into considerations, I as well do my oil change every 5k miles. Thank you again!
For the seats use a messager or something that vibrates and use the vacuum at the same time you could use it for carpets 2 “ the vibration will make particles jump
A lot of shops here in Kansas do free repairs if you buy your tires from that place. Great job on the oil change. Love your concrete content. 💙
Whenever I have had to patch up my tires they almost never charged me. I always gave them a tip (the installer). Very nice of you Lexie.
Nice work!
Yeah, around here, America's Tires does free tire patches for tires purchased through their store.
This was the cutest and cleanest oil change I have ever seen 😊❤❤❤
That car is definitely you and you are owning the maintenance on it . A lot of people just say I don't know how to do that kind of stuff or i don't wanna get oil on my hands etc... but you belong with that car . Have a great day doll :))🥰
I know America’s Tire and a few other tire shops will patch the tire for free. Independent tire shops usually charge an average of about $15. When i worked for the lexus dealership tire patches were like 42 cents which is why they’re able to do it for free. If charged you’re mainly paying for the labor.
for the exterior, i use turtle wax hybrid solutions ceramic wash and wax. It cleans and leaves the car protected in one step. You can actually see the water beading, which is so satisfying 😂
This may not mean much but I'm so proud of you kiddo! great job. keep it up. also get a mini tripod for your camera.
Glad you didnt drop the bolt/plug like I usually do. I had to fish for it later.
U took that bolt off like a champ. Great work. 👍🏾
That’s the cleanest oil I’ve ever seen come out of a car. Great job too! 😊
Way to go girl, your so fire doing your oil I need a lady like you that can do everything!🤙🏽😎🌊
At America's Tire Co. the flat repairs are always free when the tire certs are purchased. And if they can't fix the flat, you get a free tire replacement.
Lexie!!!!
Thank you for being a independent figure on the car culture, and doing things on your own,of course asking for assistance job well done!...
Hola Mejia.. Alexis you did great. Note you have to have a BMW SCAN TOOL to reset your oil change interval counter in your KOMBI module.... lol... Ask your bro, I'm positive he can do it,, surely he has a proper scan tool.. you did right by using ALL factory items.. BMW are finicky and they demand only the best parts... Keep up the good work, you're going to go far and be a UA-cam star... I just watched the video and while I was. You were blowing up girl... Views were justa clicking and clackin..
STAY GOLDEN chica bonita.. ..🌺

Good on You,You Beautiful little Sweetheart for all of Your Accomplishments ❤ You've got a Fan in Massachusetts!!!
Good Job on the oil change...! I used to do it on my previous VW cars, but I had a hard time trying to find a local store (Autozone) to take the used oil. Now I just take my car to my trusted mechanic near my work. I drop it off in the morning and walk to the office.
Good job being safe and using jack stands. Doing these its easy to get complacent and just lift the car with a floor jack but all it takes is one time for a accident to happen.
We had a dude in our city who was working on his car just using the scissor jack that came with his car. Jack broke and collapsed on him. He passed away. :/
I highly recommend just getting an oil extractor as you don't have to do any of the dangerous parts of jacking up the car on jackstands and even taking out the oil drain bolt! My Mercedes Benz e55 also has its oil filter topside so I just insert an extraction down to the oil sump to get all the old oil out without doing anything more then just opening the hood!
I was going to sugest to use a hook pick to remove the O ring but you already knew that as well as removing the filler cap. I also put paper towels around the oil filter to keep oil from getting on the engine as well as around the funnel to absorb any oil spills when refilling it. When the old oil is mostly drained I put some new oil to chase out the old oil as much as possible. Good job on using wheel chocks and jackstands to keep the car from falling on you and. I knew a fellow who died when a car fell on him. Never trust a hydraulic jack to keep the car raised.
Great video, I particularly liked how you brother checked both jack stands. cheers👍
Holy cow. A woman changing the oil? I think you may be the 5th American girl to ever change oil. Keep it up. Great to see people actually doing something in life.
Couple of things, first of all, you are one smart girl, you just saved hundreds of dollars by doing that yourself compared to if you took it to BMW. Also, you have a beautiful concrete driveway, of course you would have tinted concreted, but just from that you must have a beautiful home. Your family has taught you well. Thirdly at 7K miles, that M2 is new, congrats, you show that if you work hard you can pay for nice things. You are very wise girl for your age, your parents should be proud! I knew that about the little tree, I like the basic Vanillaroma for my car. Look at you becoming a vlogger! Nice job!
Thank you for your comment! I love everything you said! And that’s true, a lot of people think I buying my car was a mistake which I know it isn’t a smart one either but it does teach you to be on time with paying every month! Have a great day
Ciężka praca nie gwarantuje tego, że stać cię na ładne rzeczy.
liquid moly not really saving😂
@@slowdiesel1044not
This is dope that you show your normal life from work to home and not mind you doing it on your own
Good job for your first time. God bless you 🙏
Good to see a young person these days taking the initiative and getting the job done. Independence is a good thing.
Nice work Lexie! I did mine a few weeks back, same car, same oil, same filter.
I like the Michelin 4s…. Looks the you have the Michelin AS (all seasons) another great tire 👍
Thank you! And no way that’s cool! Do u post your car? And yea I had the Michelin pilot super sports but for some reason I decided on the all season this time😂😭
@@lexflowaz No I don’t post my car. I have the M2 Competition. Basically same car, yours sounds better. Mine is a 6 speed which I would have thought you might have opted for as you whip through the gears on your concrete truck.
I noticed yours had low miles when you were doing the reset. Great score & love that it was your dream car 👍
Enjoy your channel - impressed with your abilities - you have a great work ethic and an apparent great family from what I have seen. Keep grinding ✌️
@@bmwgary i considered the m2 comp but only because I LOVED the hockenheim color, but ended up deciding on the m2 n55 after some research, my brother has s55 engine so I’m happy I went with base m2 n55, and yes I got it at 24k miles 1 previous owner!
What color did you get? same white as me?
And thank you for the kind words 🙏
@@lexflowaz The N55 is a great engine. I have a 335i n55 as well. You made a great choice!! I hunted for both in the middle of Covid when prices were sky high. I do have the Hockenheim which I love yet White was my first choice after I saw all the colors of the Comp side by side at a BMW track event and thought the white showed off the lines of the car best. I bought mine after a phone call from original owner with 12k miles. I flew to Michigan two days later and drove it 10 hours home (Connecticut) - So fun!! Wish you were closer to take her for drive… Keep it - don’t sell it (but update your file of receipts 😉). I think it’s an end of an era. The new ones are ugly IMO.
Thanks for reaching back out - you are pure joy
I need to get those low profile ramps! I keep all physical copies of receipts and also keep a digital copy on google sheets. That way I have the info on hand if needed.
Your one bad ass chick and so smart beyond your years some of your outlooks on life took me almost 40 yrs to grasp tha concept of keep up tha awesome videos
A girl who can change her own oil?? ❤😍 Nice job Lexie! I gotta change my oil in my car soon!
