Sorry guys, I searched this topic and nothing came up. Is there a tutorial on changing the oil and/or does anyone have any tips to offer? I'm going to go synthetic at 140,000 km. This is the first oil change I've done to this van. Thanks for any and all advice.

Guess you gotta know someone. I'll try the other board.

Really not much to know.I prefer Wix oil filters because they are superior to anything out there.Oil choices are as verier as the person who is doing them.Get a band type of oil filter wrench to remove the oil filter.
Now ya know me on this site...........................
But I wouldn't tell anyone that.

Guess most think this is something that one goes out and does.
Only trick I have is to puncture the bottom of the oil filter. This allows the oil to drain from it, making removal a little cleaner.

Thanks for the replies, fellas. I don't really like that 'other' board anyway.
