DIY: Changing the oil and filter on a 1st gen G35(part 2)

[Tjmomma2]

I have a question: Do your arms get tired when you work under the car like that? Or is it just me? Or do you get used to it after a while? I'm a DIY noob

[jkwon85]

pd.f spec sheet calls for 5.7qts of oil for my 04SportSedan.

[westbank23]

Hey thanks for the great diy.I have a question though,is there really a need to use a new crush washer?I'm planning on changing my engine oil an my MT oil on Sunday(my only off day a week)and the dealer will be closed so I wont have access to the crush washers.would it be ok if I reuse my old ones?

[rg3519]

that cover is a pain in my ass..that was the worst part when changing the oil

[AyoJl]

hey i was wondering wah is the name for the filter and the oils??

[Rico8458]

genuine toyota motor oil is made by whom? and is it synthetic? what oil did the factory put inside my 2005 camry 2.4L, 4-cyl ,2A2-FE engine?

[Carlijawan]

So how many quarts does it use?

[azniza519]

I have the same problem with the oil. When my mechanic changed my oil I thought he didn't pour enough cause it was at the half way point also. So I had to pour in some extra. Glad mines not the only one that's messed.

which oil are you using and the grade THANKS

Very good video for G coupe owners.  Thank you very much for the detail you put into this video. I feel confident in changing the oil in my G37 now.

You should check out the rest of the videos, they will allow you to take care of your car without ever really needing to bring it anywhere.

[KnoxvilleG37]

Do you have videos on coolant system flush and brake service?

[eturkov]

[badjayz99]

hey man, just wanted to ask a question, since your the G35 expert... i'm about to purchase a 2004 G35 coupe, but im not a fan of the spoiler trunks. Do know any online websites that i could buy a silver trunk without a spoiler, and what the procedure would be to replace it?

[bythabayplayer]

I would go on the g35driver forum in the coupe section an post your query.

[bythabayplayer]

I bought 100 of them on ebay for ~$30

[ThirdeYe1337]

Ooh, is that the 0W-30 SSO? What are your impressions of it so far? I've only used the 5W-30 Amsoil ASL in my Acura, but it ran great with it.

[bythabayplayer]

Yeah, that is the SSO. I'm not sure how that guy is liking it (he's still running that fill), however, I am running a fill also and I might do a UOA on it to see how it compares with some of the other formulas I've used.

[ThirdeYe1337]

I was going to get a UOA of my Amsoil fill with 5k on it, but I opened the valve cover and used some Hondabond on the cam corners so I figured I introduced a good amount of silicon, so I changed it early and passed on the UOA. I'm sure it would've came back great though. My UOA's of Havoline and Valvoline came back great.
