First and foremost, you need to open the hood of your vehicle and locate the oil cap and dipstick. Before proceeding with the oil change, be sure to acquire the correct oil – full synthetic 5W-30, along with a new oil filter. In my case, I’m also replacing the oil pan plug due to wear and tear, as using a damaged plug can lead to complications down the line.
Using a wrench and socket, carefully remove the oil pan plug to drain the old oil. Additionally, you will need a special socket to change the oil filter. Once the old oil is drained and the new filter is securely in place, refill the engine with the new oil. After ensuring there are no leaks, reseal the oil cap, reinsert the dipstick, and start the vehicle to check for any signs of leakage and verify the oil level.
By following these steps, you can successfully change the oil for a 2013 Chevy Equinox. It’s a straightforward process that can help keep your vehicle in optimal condition. If you have any questions or want to share your own tips, feel free to leave a comment below. Thanks for watching!
