I let mine drain longer than that.... only takes about 20 mins ...
Am i the only one so far that doenst think that an oil change with the stock cartridge filter is all that bad? (uhm) I do all my own, and only takes about 20 mins. Not all that messy in my opinion. I dont think its really that big of a deal... thats my .02
I let mine drain longer than that.![]()
I'm with you....kind of. In my personal experience, the ms3 is a better oil change than my old tacoma was. It wasn't that the tacoma was difficult, it was just overly tedious. It was a top-mounted screw-on, with a run-off sort of cup thingy. And there was a drain under that cup. So I had to put a 4ft tube on it, guide it down through suspension and steering components, around the rock guard, and into the oil pan.
Not to mention, even though its a normal filter, I couldn't just fill it up and screw it on because I had to do it upside down, so it would lose what I just put in
Its all relative. Mercedes ******* blows for oil changes. No dipsticks, computer on the dash tells you if its good or not
Also, bimmers blow. Top mounted cartridge. If you wait too long and the filter is brittle, it will break off and go right back into the oil plumbing
who is putting your filters on so tight you need to use a wrench to get it off? It SHOULD be able to come off using your hands.
All I know is I can't do any oil change without a full can of brk kleen readily available
There is an adapter you can get that angles the filter out forward of the rack. Also has a drain channel so the oil flows properly.Actually my new hemi ram is less than desireable as well. The oil filter is a regular screw-on, but it will inherently drip on the steering rack
