      @@joesdiy4260 Thank you for the reply. Yeah, I've been debating on doing the job. Where we live it's not really necessary to have the heater in the seat, but for a couple of months it would be nice. I did call the dealer out of curiosity and they were hesitant to do it since none of their techs really had experience doing it and they said it would be like $600, so no thanks. I'll add this project to my never ending list of projects.

    • @joesdiy4260
      @joesdiy4260 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Truthfully, you never know until you run the part on the car. But things you can look for when you are in the yard to give you a high level of confidence that whatever part you are pulling does not have issues are: - Does it look new? - Does it have a reman sticker on it? - Is the part covered in fluid? If so, can you identify where the leak is coming from? Maybe there was something above that leaked onto the part you want. - Can you physically move the part in a way where you can tell that it is bad/broken? In the case of the rack that I pulled, I employed all of the above questions and I had a high confidence that it was OK. I really hope this helps, thanks for watching and commenting and have a great day!

    Why do people continue to jack up their cars for an oil change. People buy yourself a set of ramps. So much easier and safer.

    • @joesdiy4260
      @joesdiy4260 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey, thanks for watching and commenting. The reason why I use a jack and jack stands is that ramps take too much space in my garage. Ramps are safer but they are not as versatile as a jack and jack stands, but that is my opinion. Regardless of how we lift a car, I hope you were able to use this video to change the oil on your vehicle. Have a great day!

    Thanks. I know this is a year old now, but I just got my 2017 SS last year, and it's time for breaks. Want to go all OEM, but the Chevy dealership is out of their mind. It's about 1000 just for new pads. All OEM pads, rotors, and hardeware are about 980bucks if i do it myself. Thanks for the tutorial.

      @joesdiy4260 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, thanks for watching and commenting, because you say that you are not mechanical, it is hard for me to recommend a mod for you to do. But with that out of the way, I know people would use the bottom end (engine block, pistons, robs, crank, oil pan) and place a 4g63 head on top and create a stroker engine with the 4g64, but I do believe there is some mods that need to be done to the cylinder head, like oil or water passage block offs. I am 95% sure that the 4g63 engine drops into the car, but I could be wrong, I would check out the Egale Summit FB group, lots of smart guys on there that have done a 4g63 swap on these cars. Good luck and have a great day!

    Greetings Joseph, first off, until I saw that you left the Fork stear tube very long I knew it wasn't going to work 😅. Second, you're not going to build wheels for a living so don't worry about your speed building them. A dish tool is advised if you plan to build more which I would encourage you to do so. You did great. Jobst Brandt is a gentleman who wrote a book about wheels and building them.

    • @joesdiy4260
      @joesdiy4260 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I first would like to say thanks for watching commenting. It really means a lot. 😁 yup, I left the stearer tube long because I knew it would go into a different frame. I absolutely know I won't be building wheels for a living lol, I just wanted to let others know how long it took me since it could take someone shorter, as long or longer to build their first wheel set. I one million percent needed to dish the wheels, haha. I did a poor man's dishing by putting the wheels in frame and measuring left and right between the fork tubes and the back of the frame. I was able to get them dished pretty evenly. I will definitely not be building another set, but anytime soon, there is no need to right now. But it's fun to understand the process, and it is always a humbling experience when you learn something new.

      From my 18yrs of experience working on cars that are generally 15 to 20yrs old and have lived their entire life in the rust belt (north east), I never ever lift cars from the pinch welds. They are the first things to rust and get very, very weak. This car is only 3 years old at the time of filming but I wanted to film with a lift point that I KNOW will be OK for 20 years. So, if anyone watches the video in the future, they can do the job safely.

      Hello! Thanks for watching and commenting, I did a quick Google search and it says 5qts with filter. But I would still start the engine AFTER filling it with oil, let it run for a few seconds and have the oiling system prime the filter, turn it off, wait a minute to allow the oil to drain back and re check the oil level. Good luck and take care.

    How do you know when to change the oil

    • @joesdiy4260
      @joesdiy4260 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hello! There are multiple ways you can identify when to change the oil. Either 3000 or 5000 miles, milage depends on weather you use conventional or synthetic oil respectively. Another indicator is the oil life monitor, I generally change a cars oil that is equipped with an oil life monitor at 30%. You can wait until 0% but I always find that the oil has a very burnt smell and is very black indicating it is over used.

    • @scrambler69-xk3kv
      @scrambler69-xk3kv 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My mechanic told me to change the oil on this vehicle when the oil life monitor is at 50 per cent. He said this engine has a lot of problems especially with the oil line going to the turbo becoming clogged. That is why he recommends frequient oil changes for this engine. He said believe me it will save you a lot of grief with this engine.

    • @joesdiy4260
      @joesdiy4260 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

  • @gregsmith5132
    @gregsmith5132 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    If your filter cap says UFI you need a different filter with a bypass valve on the filter. Your cap most likely says Hengst and the bypass valve is in the cap. The filter is different depending on the cap you have - and they are NOT interchangeable despite fitting in there. Read TSB 17-NA-184 for Encores 2013-2020.
