Thank you sir! I have the same 2019 Chevy Eq! So this is perfect! Tired of paying these companies nearly $150 for something that I can do on my own lol!
@@nevorchi absolutely and it doesn't take long and you can get the best oil and still pay less. Also, you can do it when you're off work instead of using your lunch break or something! Glad it helped!
Make sure the old gasket comes off with the old old filter, double gasketing by mistake will cause a leak. Also a magnetic drain plug is the best to use to capture any metal filings That may be in the engine oil.
A double gasketed filter will lead to a destroyed engine in short order. It’s something I always check. The oil will leak out when the engine is under load so it might not show with a quick check at idle.
Factory torque spec for that oil drain plug is only 18 foot lbs. Whoever put that plug in at the last OC way overtightened it. Doing so continuously will set you up for stripped-out threads to the drain bolt/drain pan, a very unpleasant & unnecessary issue to deal with.

Thanks for this! I was curious if I could do this on my own and glad to see it's literally like a 10 minute job!
Super easy! Good luck!
Loads of help. Thank you. They’re charging around $79 for an oil change. I just bought everything I need for about $40
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching! I appreciate that
Is that just for the oil change or does it also include tire rotation and muti point inspection?
@@marvinjenkins4901 yes. $65 for just an oil change at another shop.

That’s why the filter is there. To capture metallic particles.

Do these cars need a new crush washer? I'm used to German stuff.
Not that I'm aware of
Any suggestions on an overtightened screw? The place I went to used electric equipment.
Best thing I can think of is either a breaker bar or get a cheap impact to break it loose. Can't stand when they put stuff on that tight
@@CleanCutLawnsNC thank you sir I’ll give them a shit. I know same here thanks for the info!
@@aands21 hope it helps man. Let me know
Great. Still happy with the Equinox 1,5L turbo? Thanks.
Well I do not have it anymore....
@@CleanCutLawnsNC Ok,... So, do you recommand it...? Thanks.
Thanks for your video. A little more camera & video editing would help.
Good stuff man!
What size is the oil filter?

You're not kidding. I never have that issue when I do it myself on any of my vehicles, mowers included. I appreciate the comment!
When did Batman start making car videos?
When he couldn't find somebody to change the oil on his batmobile
Oh man you have just helped me save $136 every 3 months for oil changes.
That's awesome! I'm glad it's been helpful!

Half of the video is just showing nothing . Sad that equinox went away from the cartridge filter up on top that was so much easier
terrible angle thanks anyway
Yeah it was tough under there. Appreciate the comment
Can't see what you're doing
