Nice video. Good hack for the filter. I've had to use the screwdriver method before. With my pliers, I also have an oil filter ratchet attachment that slips on in those times where there is no clearance for the standard pliers. You should add one to your tool box. Oh, did you replace the crush washer? Definitely recommend that each time for those watching. Btw...very clean engine my friend. I'm impressed. Did you clean it before the video? 😂
Ironically I had one last month where I had to end up using the hammer and screwdriver method. Worse of all it wasn’t my car and wasn’t at home so had minimal tools. Your tip is spot on, apply oil around the oil filter gasket to avoid it getting seized on in the future. 👍
I've had a few filters like that, way over tight when they put it on would be my guess. Literally just did the oil change on my 08 GMC today.😂 Great vid Brother!

Haha I clean it pretty often. It’s a great way to clear the mind.. (what I tell my wife). Yeah I need to get a filter ratchet

Yes I’ve had some bad, but this is by far the worst. Can’t believe the dealership got it on so tight
@@FixItFrench I agree, insane. Potentially a combo of not lubricating the gasket and torquing it down like a mad man.
More Chevy Trick videos to come 🤙🏼
Bring ‘em on! 👍
@@inspiringbuilds yessir!!!

Yeah I’ve had some tight ones, but this was the worst I’ve experienced. Thanks for stopping by brother 🤙🏼
Bro that is wild. I’ve see a lot of oil changes and done a few here and there and never see a filter come out that bad. Great video!
Thanks man, and yeah I‘be never seen one get that bad
Thanks for this useful information. Stay healthy and happy. See you buddy.
Good to hear from you! You do the same
Maaaaan that filter was crazy 😂
Dude I was ready to torch it 😅
They must have used lock tight on that filter lol
Haha they used something! Never been so mad during an oil change before, I about called them and told them to do it lol
Worst filter I’ve seen! I’d make the dealership pay for it tbh
Seriously thought about it
