Just did the spring oil change on my 2002 C5. Video helped. Time to hit the VA highways. 🛣️

Very good video thank's for it .

Red Solo Cup. Freakin' brilliant. Worth watching just for that. I also keep a box of vinyl examination gloves handy; they're so inexpensive I don't care how many I go through.

The garage is very nice

44 years of oil changes and never thought to use a red solo cup. Just wish my f150 filter was vertical....

I use the same oil in all my vehicles. Change once a year but I'm driving less than 3000 miles a year.

The oil change on these cars can be tricky at times!!! But not hard!

Another tip is it's usually cheaper to buy the big boxes of oil off of Amazon or from your local parts store. Just open and use from them as needed and saves a bit of money and plastic waste

instead of a solo cup , take a screw driver or a punch and put a hole in the bottom of the filter . let drain for a few minutes , no mess.

mark i know its off topic but im in chesapeake and just received my knightdrive lights for my c5 and was wondering if you had any issues with the lights passing inspection any advise would be appreciated

Back when I was younger and limber while changing the oil in my cars and garden tractors I would wear those throwaway blue mechanics gloves. That dirty oil under the fingernails was a pain to clean not to mention the lingering oil smell on my hands. As meticulous as you are about everything, I’d have thought you’d wear them as well. Notice I didn’t say “anal” as I’ve been called! 😋

Where do you put the old oil at?

5.5 or 6.5 quarter?

great googily moogily , please avoid high milage oil unless you have leaking seals . This advice is repeated from the mobil 1 oil advice line . high milage seal conditioners are the only difference from regular oil . And if your seals are good, you don't need them expanded to now be outside of original design tolerances , as if they were worn and leaking. I know high milage oil only sounds logical, but as with any other modern car part, the part must be selected for absolutely the correct application or you will be crying. although oil today is so good it probably wouldn't matter, unless your oil seals started leaking way down the road. For the non beginners to oil changes, I am happy enough with a bronze Japanese oil change valve in place of the drain bolt on my C5, to recommend getting one . I was actually going to pass this video by, because I know how to change my oil, but clicked in when I saw the high milage oil , which would not be advantageous to use for a lot of people. Because even if you swell your main bearing seal and that stops the leak, all of the other engine oil seals are getting the same treatment, and are now softened to be outside of the critical design tolerances. . in any event it is always best to check the specifications . After all, the only important differences between transmission fluids is how much they swell the seals, and almost everyone knows the incorrect fluid will instantly ruin an automatic transmission.
