You should do this every oil change!!

- If you have a spin on style oil filter you should be cutting it open to inspect the filter element for any signs of metal and other particles to check for engine wear. You can also send in your oil sample into a lab such as Blackstone for oil analysis. Our LS3 Swapped BMW E46 was making a knocking ticking sound so we opened up the oil filter and found some metal. Time to rebuild this LS3 engine and maybe do some upgrades while we are at it!

Yep as long as you are putting in the right type of oil and keeping it changed why bother cutting filters and sending oil to labs. If something shows up, what are you going to do? Anything you do would be so expensive it's not worth doing until a failure happens

In my 45 years of experience I find that an engine knocks because it can't ring the door bell.

In my 41 years of experience I find that an engine knocks because the bell was broken.
Just like with the tv show for children called: Samson en Gert (belgium)
In this children's tv show people always had to knock on the door of the house of Samson (a fluffy dog hand puppet) and a guy called Gert.
Because the bell was out of order.
And so the well known line children growing up watching this show will all remember is: "Ik moest kloppen want de bel deed het niet"
(i had to knock because the bell was out of order)
As the owner of a $600 2007 pos malibu. I'd just run it until the motor gives out. Doing anything more than oil changes cost more than what the car is worth.
Don't forget the Marvel Mystery Oil
And yet you'll spend more than you paid for the car in gas.
If you paid 600 bucks and it's running I'd say you got more than your money's worth
Filter cutters are under $30 on Amazon.
Hold on, are you not changing your oil filter? That's as bad as not changing your oil. Please change them too, but you can probably change them every second oil change if you use premium filters and really want the money.
Wrong. The average person doesn't need to cut open the oil filter at every oil change. This video was shot with a car that already had engine problems.
Also, if there's a problem I'd be able to see those flakes in the oil that comes out of the pan, no need to cut the filter open to look for that...
You actually just said this in writing, huh?
@@KingInky13 Uh, what do you think the oil filter is doing? This country is in real trouble.
You guys that DO NOT understand should not be commenting. It's a "free" country but you "should" care enough for your fellow man to not steer them wrong! I'm a aircraft tech and completely understand why you SHOULD cut open your filters! You can PREVENT a catastrophic failure BEFORE it happens. The filter catches metallic flakes or pieces that you will NOT find in the oil pan or the oil that comes out the drain hole. Also... put a strong magnet on the bottom of your pan near the drain plug. It won't catch aluminum or brass shavings but can help prevent steel pieces from getting sucked up. You remove the magnet right before draining oil.
@@nothankyou5524 If there are metal flakes in the pan, most will settle to the bottom and NOT be picked up and sent to the filter. There is no reason to cut open a filter, unless you are trying to sell openers. Yes, this country is in trouble.
Here in Brazil there is a considerable amount of people that does not replace the oil filter when they change oil. I say it is like taking a shower and keep using your underwear.
Actually the dirtier a filter gets the better it filters, the problem is when it gets dirty to the point where it becomes restricted, then it either restricts flow or if it's the kind with a bypass in it it bypasses and the oil isn't getting filtered.
But yea, the dirtier one gets the smaller particles it'll catch, the biggest particles it'll let through during it's life is actually when it's brand new.
Leave me and my underwear out of this
Damn!! So you’re NOT supposed to put your same underwear back on!!??
Filters and oil are cheap compared to engines.

@@eclipz3424 Yosemite Sam..
This video is nonsense, first of all I always tell people not to bother with one of those tools that cuts open filters, because the first time someone looks inside of a filter all they're going to do is freak out and spend the next month of their life lying awake at night worrying about their engine, the healthiest motor in the world will always have that in it, especially these newer engine's that have massive timing chains in them, those things really spit metal, service the primary drive chains on Harley's and you'll see what I mean, every time you remove the magnetic drain plug from the primary drive they'll have a massive afro of shavings on them, take the primary cover off and there's tons of it in the bottom of the primary drive casing, it's perfectly normal, I've had several that I had for years including one I owned for 20 years and after two decades of cleaning all that out every time I pulled the cover the chain and sprockets worked as good as new and had very little wear as per how you guage them, chains just love spitting metal.
The problem with people getting one of those tools is when they first start looking inside of the filters they don't have enough experience to understand what's normal, that is they don't have a baseline, so to speak, to work with, they see the amount of metal that's actually normal and they start panicking.
And even then say one has more metal in it than should be, what are you going to do about it anyway? You might as well just run it until it won't run any more anyway, cutting open filters isn't even really useful to even garages anyway for the reasons I already explained, they're really only useful to outfits that have labs and do research and development primarily on engine oil, without the proper knowledge cutting open filters is just a novelty.
@@dukecraig2402the guy in the video said the shavings looked like copper… what copper is inside of an engine that would get worn like that?
@@warrenmcelroy4718
There isn't any copper inside of engine's so that's further proof that;
A, He doesn't know what he's talking about.
B, As I said don't go buying one of those things and cutting open oil filters because without experience in the field of destructive testing you have no clue what you're looking at, what's normal and what should concern you.
I've seen this sort of thing happen alot especially with Harley's, people get so paranoid over things that they actually take something that's supposed to be fun and turn it into a burden, when my bike shop was open to the public I was constantly getting people showing up at the place with things like a primary drive magnetic drain plug with the typical afro of metal shavings on the end in a Ziplock bag, as if was some kind of police evidence thing from a crime scene they were talking to a medical examiner's office, wanting me to look at it and tell them what was wrong, I'd have to explain to them that nothing's wrong and that it's perfectly normal to see that every single time they drop the plug to change their primary drive fluid, I was all the time telling people that they're making a big deal out of nothing and they're worrying themselves to death over nothing and basically taking all the fun out of something that's supposed to be enjoyable, all that kind of nonsense about sending samples out to be analyzed is a waste of time because so what, even if something is going wrong what exactly are you supposed to do about it? Tear your engine apart? That's what you're going to wind up doing anyway so just run it till it quits, you're still gonna wind up doing the same thing anyway, an engine teardown, so don't waste any time worrying about it, just run it and have fun until it doesn't run anymore, the outcome is gonna be the same anyway.
All that oil analysis stuff is really only useful to research and development people (which includes racing teams) and businesses that have large fleets of vehicles, they're really the only 2 that benefit from it and even know what to do with the information anyway.
As far as his comment about some particles looking like they're copper I'll bet a magnet would pick them up, when fine particles get tore from something, like the inside of a steel side plate of a chain, the heat from the friction that tore it off often changes it's color and can make it appear as some other type of metal when in fact it's actually steel, but like I said big deal, it doesn't make any difference anyway, you're not analyzing the failure of a racing engine that blew up before it could make the finish line and you're trying to figure out how to prevent it from happening again, so just run it till it quits.
I love the part in that Tom Hanks movie Bridge Of Spies, where he's the guy's lawyer who gets caught as a Russian spy, at one point Hanks looks at him and says "You don't look worried", and the guy replies "Would it change anything?", there you go, if worrying about something won't change anything then why tear yourself up worrying about it.

What good is it gonna do me to know there's metal in the oil? Still just gonna keep up on oil changes and not rebuild/replace the engine until its dead.
Exactly what I was thinking. I guess you know that you need to start saving for a major repair but we should all be doing that anyway as car owners.
A rebuilt can be cheap if its repaired before it goes catastrophic. A common rebuild, gaskets/bearings/rings/seals a few hundred bucks. Catastrophic will cost thousands.
@@Dennisrader-ff9gv not really. If you are addressing metal shavings in the oil you are going to deal with what the metal came off. Maybe it’ll save you from being a new crankshaft or camshaft , but needlessly rebuilding an engine that still works just fine for maybe years seems like the less economical way to go
@@Dogpool running it until it blows up is not economical at any capacity.

I can't understand why, with over 100 years of car design, we still don't have an oil filtration mechanism that does not spill when the filter is removed.
We do, on some cars.

Pro tip for inspecting oil filter. Cut a a piece out of the pleated area, say 10-15 pleats. Wrap in a rag and squeeze with a vise or pliers to get the oil out. Open like an accordion and inspect whats been left behind.
I use Blackstone labs to test my MTF and motor oil. I always keep a tiny sample of the oil I put in my car for a base and then oil from when I change it. And I was so happy I did because stupid me I was using amsoil thinking it was the best but from all the additives in it was causing my engine to wear at much faster rate and went back to pennzoil or mobile1 and saved a ton of money just on the oil costs.
Wow, I hadn't realized that those additives make a less functional oil. But, it makes sense. Thanks for the info...
I wouldn’t say that the amount of metal flakes in oil residue is alarming here. I would inspect the paper filter closely in this case.
My new car has more metal in the oil than this. I've never looked at the filter, but what comes out of the pan has more metal. Always end up having a bit on the bottom of what was drained.

@@extralock1045 it’s quite common for new cars. Increase in metal shavings happens during break-in period.
Right? You need to worry if you see bigger chunks or a LOT of metal. An engine is metal on metal with some oil usually between it... You're going to see metal in your oil. That's why you eventually rebuild, replace some METAL rings, some metal gaskets, etc.

Open the filter? Just pour it out of the pan, you can usually see if there is metal anyway, especially if you get a magnetic drain plug

A small amount of metal will be present in basically every motor, especially ones with higher mileage. It doesn’t necessarily mean the engine is about to fail. Larger metal flakes or shavings as well as other noises or symptoms may be an indicator of a mechanical issue though.
VW and Audi come with an oil filter cartridge. You just replace the element. Others should follow suit. Less waste as well
I agree.
You should only check the oil after an oil change if it's a Chevrolet.

As someone from 'Murica I will say te LS platform isn't exactly reliable but rather "cheap" to own compared to other V8s.

As a man, I'll just say this, which applies to both men and women. At the end of the day, it is your life and that life is determined by the choices/decisions you make. Each choice/decision has both rewards and consequences. You cannot have it only one way, it will always be a two way street with rewards and consequences, so always remember that you need to consider both instead of only the positive side of it and then be surprised or outraged that some negative stuff happened to you. Like listening to women making bad choices with men or men making bad choices with women. If the consequences are not a deterrent for you and you want to keep having your life be "challenging", then by all means, more power to you. Just don't whine about it when sh*t hits the fan and you suddenly go from being a "queen" or "king" to a "victim".
Personally I use a magnetic drain plug that’ll catch any flakes on the bottom of the oil pan. Somehow my 15 year old Subie seems like it has as much material as the day it rolled off the lot

I agree with the orher people saying The Grid should have been a KH3 world. Helped keep the numbered games feeling connected
No. This works for airplanes and large diesel engines. There will ALWAYS be metal particles, including copper, aluminum, and rabbit material, even for a healthy engine. Most people wouldn't know how to interpret an oil filter element. I've seen many healthy automotive engines replaced because people didn't know what they were doing. What you should always do is change your oil on time and have a sample analyzed in order to set a baseline.
Who tf is gonna take their old engine oil to a lab 😂
You just send in a sample it’s very easy. I do it every oil change
@phillip I was looking at doing it, but here in Australia from what I can find it’s more expensive then doing an oil change, think about $60 bucks.

always replace the oil filter when changing oil. Inspect after replacement.
Not only was the founder of the American Mafia an informant but the founder of Italian Mafia was a politician; Giuseppe Mazzini.

Albert Pike is a very significant figure in American history and most people have never heard of him
Interesting, but there's no way I'm routinely opening my filters or buying this can opener.
it’s normal to have metal particles in the oil filter as that’s its main purpose to filter the particles out of the oil, what’s not normal is to see bigger chunks and an unusual amount of particles, usually mechanics can determine what is an unusual amount of particles
Draining the oil will also show metal. Of course the engine in this car was probably abused and if it was rebuilt, it was most likely done poorly because most folks don't have the skills or cash to do it right.
This just proves that if you put an LS engine in a BMW it will still find a way to give you engine issues
Yeah I've done thousands of oil changes in my career, you look for sparkles in the oil itself and ship it. Maybe different for some engines meant for racing or whatever but 99% of the time this is not at all justifiable.
I found a piece of metal in my oil 2 years ago, engine still runs fine. Should I take my engine apart ?
I dig that solo clip technique, Use a nail to punch a hole in that filter and drain the oil first so it doesn’t make a mess.
You should of done a DOD delete if you didn’t. My LS was knocking too and it was the lifters and over time they collapsed into the engine and ruined my engine. So I got a new engine and I did the DOD delete so the lifters won’t turn off and avoid that ticking over time.
Last time I checked, you don't need a specific "can opener for your oil filter". How about you just turn the filter upside down so the oil drains through gravity?
I am Leary of the E-Core AC Delco filters. I bought a PF66 for my 24 Trailblazer(1.3). And a Gold Series version. The Gold series is much heavier. And has a metal tube inside.

Why do you need to cut oil filter open? When you drain oil at oil & filter change, you can check and see if there's any metal in oil pan after draining oil.

That amount of metal is normal in an oil filter. Big flakey flakes is what you wanna look for. The oil filters whole job is to filter out those normal wear metals.
BMW = Bringing mechanics work
Best insurance you can buy replace that filter 2 times to the oil 1. So small filters now get plugged very fast. Replace them . Oil is still good top ogf with enough to trpacee aftrr changing
I used to do this on Alison T 56 engines. If I found any metal bits I would then look at them with a scanning electron microscope. This would tell me what the metal was. That would tell me what part was dying.
Imagine cutting open an oil filter for inspection every oil change...
Just put an oil pump from an excavator and the knock knock is gone.😂
I always do that. I have loads of time, especially with my two jobs I have, 3 kids, and house work on the weekends… loads of time.
It is a BMW after all. Can’t expect reliability.
My new long block in my suburban has a slight tick tick sound it didn't EVER have before. Oil pressure is great, full synthetic oil only. I also get a random belt chirp/noise from the main serpentine belt I never had before. Changed belt and tensioner but still happens (sporadic and random, stops as quick as it starts).
Blackstone laboratories, they do great work for a very reasonable price!!
What is a name od that tool to open oil filter?😅
Use PIIA Magnetic filters! Blocks any metal particles in between two separate filters built into one.
Treat it right, change the oil on time and you won't NEED to worry about this.
Had to subscribe just because of that knock knock joke... hahaha...
