![]() Wear some safety glasses, some hand protection, oil's a chemical, very dangerous for you. But you're going to want to be very careful, to make sure that when you pull your drain plug right here, the fluid's going to come out and it's going to prob come backward a little bit, you know what I mean? So, you're going to want to make sure you have your face nowhere near it. ![]() I'm lucky enough to have a lift, if you don't, and you're laying on the ground, well good luck. All right, so we're underneath the vehicle now. So, I'm going to wait on it, but I wanted to show you it. ![]() You can look down inside here, all the way down there, that's the oil filter, it's going to be much easier to get from down bottom. I'm just going to pull it up, leave it like this for now. Cool, so right here's the oil dipstick, this is how you're going to check your oil when you're done, okay? It's pretty basic, but I'm just going to state it. If you put it right here, you trying closing the hood, it's not going to close. You just close the hood and then drive away, that could become an issue. We can put this someplace else, and you do your thing and maybe your friend, or whatever, calls you, and you walk away and you forget if you added oil. But anyway, dexos approved, 5W-30 oil, okay? We'll set this right here, that way there we can't forget to put oil in it. It's a Chevrolet, so they recommend a very special oil for this, you don't want to use regular 5W-30, you can look into why, I'm sure you can find it all over the internet, and they'll tell you about it. It's very important that the oil you use is dexos approved. It tells us what kind of oil we need to use. All right, so one of the first things that we want to do, once we pop the hood, we're going to take the oil cap, we want to take a look at it. If you need any parts, or instructional videos, you can always check us out at. It's going to be very simple, I want to be the guy that shows you how to do it. Hey friends, it's Len here at 1A Auto, today we're working on a 2015 Chevy Equinox, we're going to be doing a quick oil change.
