This guide teaches you easily step-by-step how to do an oil AND oil filter change yourself on your own car. I've documented everything I do to service my Toyota vehicle - DIY style.

I remember when I decided to do my very own oil change for the first time - I was pretty nervous and scared but after doing countless of oil services over the years, this video will walk you through everything I've learned to give you the confidence you need. Hopefully this also gives you the spark to take more care of your own vehicle as it does with you!
