Amazing!

Thanks guys. I always thought changing oil was so simple, but listening the big dogs dialogue, I realize that there were things I did not consider. Don't you just hate when you are newbie with the store tags still on.

Try undoing the filter on my 96' Corolla or a Mazda 323.. The location's shitty and they're rivetted on..

Very very shitty. That night sucked. My hand was so ripped up after that

oil change very succsessful. the oil filter simply twisted off and the oil dripped nicely :)

3 litres came out, not too sure where a litre and a half went, but i don't think i have a leak at all, but i was very overdue on the change, might have burnt a bit because of my lead foot :whistling ....

all is good, very proud, the jack didn't give way :p

i put in about 4 and a half litres... plus a bit more. it's all good.

indeed!
it's useless and a waste of oil. it's like me giving a cashier 100 bucks when i only bought 5 in the store.

beeks, do you even know what you're talking about???
