I want to learn how change my own oil.. can someone help me step by step for my 07 si?

 

Step 1: Open Oil Cap in the engine bay
Step 2: Raise vehicle on lift or floor jack
Step 3: Get under vehicle
Step 4: Locate oil pan, there's a bolt, place container under bolt, the loosen the bolt.
Step 5: Locate oil filter, it's blue if it's OEM, it's on the passenger side near axle
Step 6: Replace filter
Step 7: Check if oil and drained completely, if so, replace oil pan bolt.
Step 8: Stand back up and lower vehicle
Step 9: Pour about 5 qt of oil, I recommend Eneos Synthetic Oil
Step 10: Put Oil cap back on
Step 11: Make sure all bolts and caps are replaced tightly
Step 12: Start car, if no leaks, sit back and relax or go and enjoy the ride.

FYI: there's a step by step in the owner's manual.

Take care.

 

It was a tight squeeze for me to grab the oilfilter... first change I had trouble finding the filter based on the manual diagram. I actually could not get the OEM one off.

 

thanks ill try that! i'll tell u how it went

 

oil change on 06+ si's =

 

what do you mean its bs? is it do-able for a beginner?

 

It can be done by a beginner, we all had to start from somewhere. yes the oil filter is hard to reach and undo, but if you a filter removal tool it should help a little bit. You can get one at your local auto parts store. It kinda looks like a jar opener.
