Frequent oil changes are the best preventive maintenance for the engine as aging oil becomes diluted and contaminated, leading to premature engine wear. Before starting the procedure, ensure you have all the necessary tools and plenty of rags or newspapers for spills. Park the vehicle on a level spot and let the engine reach its normal operating temperature. Remove the filler cap in the rear cam cover. Raise and secure the vehicle on jack stands. Familiarize yourself with the location of the oil drain plug and place a drain pan underneath. Carefully remove the drain plug, allowing the old oil to drain into the pan. Inspect the old oil for metal shavings and chips. Wipe off the drain plug and clean the area around the opening. Reinstall and tighten the plug. Move the drain pan under the oil filter and loosen it with a filter wrench. Unscrew the filter from the block, ensuring the oil inside doesn't spill out. Wipe off the mounting surface on the block and remove any old gasket residue. Smear engine oil on the rubber gasket of the new filter and screw it into place. Tighten it by hand until the gasket contacts the seating surface, then give it an additional 3/4-turn. Lower the vehicle. Add new oil through the oil filler cap and pour the appropriate amount into the engine. Wait for the oil to drain into the pan and check the level on the dipstick. Start the engine and check for leaks. Recheck the oil level and monitor for leaks during the first few trips after the oil change. Dispose of the old oil at an oil reclamation center. To reset the service reminder light, turn the ignition key to the On position and depress the button to the right of the speedometer until the odometer is displayed.
