Talking V6 LFX Oil Change

I used this helpful link when I first started doing my oil changes.

It's very helpful and even has links on the oil filter call outs so you can buy them without much hassle.

* Don't ask me why they used a picture of a V8 front end at the top of the page. lol

Enjoy:

Great post!
Thanks for taking the time to post that up.

I've already done my first oil change at 1,500 miles so I don't really need the info but I'll bet a bunch of people will find this very helpful.

Be sure to check for the upper filter gasket stuck in the "bell" instead of coming out with the filter.

Sure is neater than changing the filter on the V8!

Good link.
I changed mine yesterday for the first time with 1525 on the odometer. Was a little unsure about seating both the drain plug and filter housing because I didn't have the feel for it yet. Both came to a abrupt stop without much torque and that was it perfect no leaks.
