    Thank you for the video easy to follow along and makes it less intimidating for someone who knows nothing about cars to do some basic car maintenance

    3:11 That cup part is not for all filter types, so make sure you bring that to the store and see if it fits.

    I have a 2007 Toyota Matrix (Corolla) and have changed the oil every 3,000 miles and it is over 202,000 miles on the vehicle. The last oil change I went from conventional oil to fully synthetic Costco oil I waited 8,000 miles before draining it last night with a new filter.
    Be sure to change your transmission fluid. I waited too long until 196,000 miles to do my first change. By draining you can only get out about 4 or 5 quarts dropping the pan changing the filter.
    My transmission fluid was supposed to be permanent. My fluid was black with only a faint slight red on a white paper towel.
    After my transmission fluid change there is a lot more red in the black. Trouble is: there is a lot more liquid in your transmission. I will drain it again changing the filter and replacing the fluid.
    Warning us only the approved transmission fluid. I use the Castrol Transmax type T-IV. The correct transmission fluid is critical to proper transmission operation. The Castrol is much cheaper than the OEM Toyota automatic transmission fluid that is easily over $10 a quart.
    Be aware: Toyota says your automatic transmission is good for the life of your car. What is next? oil that never has to be changed? I want my car to last for another 100,000 miles so changing the transmission fluid is well worth it for me.
    I did just buy 4 new Michelin 80,000 mile tires from Costco for under $600. An incredible deal on a set of 4 tires even for lesser quality tires.
    I just changed the alternator, water pump, thermostat, drive belt and tension er. I do want my 2007 Matrix to make it to 300,000 miles.

      I’d recommend Amsoil fluids and filters. Longer change intervals and you’ll see improvement in mpg and overall performance. Great results in my 2004 Corolla.

    Sorry, but those Fram Extraguard filters are just straight trash. And there is absolutely no need to use a wrench to tighten that oil filter. Hand pump is as tight as it ever needs to be.

    i think its a 14 mm not a 15 mm oil drain plug

    • @GDavis49
      @GDavis49 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You’re correct it’s 14 mm
