Default I do my own oil between changes. I have a griots oil extractor

I also have a lift or should have it back in a few months. There isn't really a need to change the filter between 5 and 10k changes

Default Sia... draining the oil is simple...

The hardest part is replacing the plastic shield underneath... all it takes is a set of Rhino Ramps and a big drain bucket. Done it myself a couple times, in case you need a hand...

Default You will need to remove the coolant Reservoir to pull the rear coil pack. Not that big a deal if

you take your time. Total time to replace plugs for me was 2 hrs.
