Thanks for the torque specs.

I ended up taking it in because I was unable to remove the oil filter. My wrench just kept slipping off!

 

Somebody on this forum said this Sears tool fits the xD filter body.

Haven't tried myself tho.

 

Yeah I'm gonna try that next time. The one I was using was labeled 65-67mm and I just couldn't get a good grip on the filter housing!

 

you know how many liter of oil do I have to put in I never done it before and the around here do not have the filter I I just order some

 

with oil filter change: 4.2 liters (4.4 us quarts, 3.7 lmp. qts)
without oil filter change: 3.9 liters (4.1 US qts, 3.4 lmp. qts)
dry fill: 4.7 liters (5.0 US qts, 4.1 lmp qts)

 

thank you I still learning I have to do it because the shop will not do it because my car is to low

 

Did my first oil change tonight. Drained it out, and let it drip dry then filled it up with 5w20 royal purple synthetic. No problems getting anything apart, bought a 65mm end cap wrench from Advanced Autoparts for $4 and change. Only problem I had was getting the original metal gasket/washer off the drain plug. It sort of dry-welded on. I eventually grabbed it with a pair of channel locks and it popped right off.

 

Very good info guys I noticed the new cartridge when I had the car jacked up taking a look at things. Searching to see if pure 1 or wix has a cartridge available for it yet. Will let you all know asap.

 

The filter part number for purolator will be L16311 but is not yet available to the public.

The Dana / Wix part number will be... Also not available yet.

...and why the heck didn't you just edit your post to include all this instead of making three separate posts? Odd. Thanks for the info though.

 

Because I was doing it from a phone, was faster to just make a new post, and besides that I felt like it whinebag

And to further help that vein pop out on your forehead, I also made a seperate thread about the cartridge filter itself Hope this does not destroy your perfect night *LOL*

Whinebag? Nah not at all. Being on a phone makes perfect sense. I do wish they made a mobile version of this site though, that'd be the ---- right there.

 

Just jabbing ya in the ribs a little No hard feelings

 

Man, so glad you got an xD haha.

Thanks it worked like a charm. No more annoying maintenance required light. [/b]

 

Recently while changing my oil and filter late at night, I forgot I didn't have a tool to twist open the plastic filter cap, so I improvised and used a coilover wrench key. It took a few revolutions to loosen the cap for the first time, but it worked.

 

Used a 65 mm filter wrench from Advance Auto for the casing. Worked like a charm, though I spent a good bit of time bashing my knuckles against the oil pan trying to loosen the casing in a clockwise motion. Relatively painless once the gremlins of the oil change were worked out.

 

Wix filter is out... I ordered one from O'Reilly Auto Parts where I work now... I don't have the part number but it is a special order item.
