This is perhaps the best oil change DIY I've come across on youtube. You're organized and pay attention to detail and it shows. Even down to the description of items used. Very thorough. Thanks!
Just got a hellcat and I’m learning how to do an oil change myself after getting tired of waiting for dealers to do a 30 min job. By far the best how to video.
THANK YOU! I’ve been trying to figure out the jack points on my 300. All the videos completely skip over it and get straight to the oil pan. That’s all I needed 🙏🏾🙏🏾
My poor little cheap love of my life 5.7 goes to the dealer for its oil changes. I don’t think it’s synthetic oil. But I take advantage of the 3 oil changes for 99.00.
I should have my 2021 Challenger Scat Pack by the end of July. The market is crazy right now. Im able to MAKE money on my truck trade in. I paid 36k for my 2019 Ram and almost 3 years later they giving me 39k for it. SO many dealerships charging so much over MSRP i just special ordered mine and saved myself almost 12k rather than buying right off the dealership lot and i got exactly what i wanted. But anywho... This was the most informative and helpful video i have found. Im planning on doing all my own oil changes going forward with this car. This initial cost is gonna hurt my wallet little but ill be doing mine and my wife 2021 Charger oil changes so it will save me money in the long run. Thanks for all the helpful information!
Thank you for detailed video. I bought the Daytona jack and same jack stands and zl1 mag pad and the tool to remove the push pins. Thanks for the links to everything. Made my 1st oil change on my hellcat widebody go smooth.
Been watching your videos since I had my 392. Made the same switch as you (Charger though). You are legitimately the best Mopar RUclips channel out there. Most of these channels are cocky, arrogant shmucks. Keep up the good work!
Hi im new to your channel and I'm just loving all the overall content. Really love the dialog and father son work. I'm a DIY guy myself(21) and seeing you teach your son is such awesome goals considering I didn't learn from my father. 392 charger owner by the way.
It is completely possible to do this with a regular jack and stands. Only differences are, you have to put the back of the car up first every time. On these particular cars, once the car is back down on the ground each individual tire should be jacked up to get the tires to sit back on the ground properly, there is about 3 inches movement to the camber because of the independent suspension droop. I have had many people tell me I'm crazy until they watched me do it, it appears to be more prominent in the rear.
I had a similar drain plug that was spring loaded back in the mid 80’s I think I got it from JC Whitney those things are great. I put it on my 1983 Olds 98
Great vid. I just received my mag pads. I also picked up a great low profile floor jack. I just had shoulder surgery so I won’t be doing any jacking for awhile
Really good video, good to have your son help. More people need to learn to work on their cars. I didn't tighten my filter enough and because of the cover underneath, I didn't know for a while. Thanks, I appreciate the help. Don't know why it was loose, I've done it before and when I turned it, it won't unturn without a wrench. ?
I had a similar problem with a 2014 GMC Sierra V-6. It didn't matter how tight I would put the oil filter on, it would always loosen up after 1,000 miles.
Hi. The pinch weld cut out is 2" on my Scat Pack and the ZL1 website is calling for 3" for the Challenger. Looks like your's are 3". I ordered the 3" but went with the Byenins Slotted Mag Pad as the ZL1 when not offered on Prime anymore. I hope they work. I have not changed my own oil in years but the dealership put the wrong oil in last time and I no longer trust them. Wish me luck.. l did my oil change yesterday and went great. Nothing leaking and good oil pressure. I have not changed oil in 40 years. My mag pads did not make it on time so used Rhino Ramps with 2 of 2x6 pieces of wood to clear the spoiler.
Work Play Drive Thanks they where delivered and seem to fit fine. I will keep them if I need to use the floor jack. The ramps with the wood was perfect to lift my car. Glad i found this video as the dealer put 5w 40 in the car and charged 130 bucks. I have the Pennzoil 0-40 in the car now with SRT filter for $60.
Great tutorial! Thank you for posting. Just one question. Throughout the oil change procedure, your Challenger remains jacked up in the front. Shouldn't it be level with the ground to ensure full drainage of the old oil? Or am I just remembering an old wives' tale from the 70's?
Great video! Couple questions from a fellow hellcat owner: ?have you noticed over repeat jacking that the outer sheet of the pinch weld (two pieces of metal) gets slightly deformed outward; don't get me wrong the whole thing isn't bent and I've always been using the ZL1 temporary pinch weld adapters ?is your front Exhaust Pipe/Converter (Part 68474162AD) in this schematic, your lowest ground-clearance part? mine are ~4-4.5 inches off the ground ?does your frame creak a bit when you jack the front, like you said with the rigidity the rear wheel comes up too a bit...
I like those flat top jacks and the opposite wheel chock jacking technique. I have to get those mag pads for my Charger Scat Pack WB. Is that oil cooler drain on the Scat Pack too?
Great content bro the best oil and filter is the amsoil don’t got anything against penzoil also great but the amsoil is the best from protection and smooth sound
@@WorkPlayDrive the are two types of amsoil 0w40 the signature series and the extreme power is special for 0w40 I used Mobil 1 extended and Castrol and a lot more the best one I used is amsoil on my previous pentstar and hemi with the amsoil filter you check out amsoil vs pennzoil on project farm but the best thing on your video is the royal purple filter is better than the mopar excellent choice
Question is it really necessary to do the engine oil cooler because only little bit of oil came out. Do you know if Dodge Hellcat manual recommends to do the engine oil cooler drainage?
where did you find the torque spec for the drain plug? I looked in the manual, but it only talks about the lug nuts. Also, What was the result of asking about the fumoto for the oil cooler drain?
The torque specifications are in the Service manual, purchased separately from chiltondiy.com Regarding the Fumoto, when I spoke with them they could not recommend it because they have not tested their product as an oil cooler drain.
Question:. Have you ever gotten a flat tire on the challenger ? What is the clearance from ground to jacking point? Will the low profile floor rack fit? Thanks.
No flat tire sorry but my low profile jack has a good amount of height to spare. Also lifting from opposing corner would give you any additional height needed to get a jack under there.
@@WorkPlayDrive Thanks. I did see a video where someone jacked the front and the back tire cane off the ground as well. Should work the other way as well. Q
I’m sure I missed it. My bad. But what brand are those pliers you used to remove the push pins? For the oil cooler cover. Thanks again. Best video I’ve seen about changing oil, filter and drain oil cooler on a Hellcat. I just bought my first Hellcat 2 months ago.
Congrats on the hellcat🎈 I believe this is the tool you are looking for amzn.to/2OHK3iS. A flat head works but this just makes removing most clips so much easier.
personally I prefer the convenience of the fumoto valves over the OEM oil plugs. A positive of the Magnetic plugs is they will gather up any metal shavings in the oil pan and make them noticeable on oil changes.
I've heard the opposite from mechanics. They said that putting oil in the filter before installing risks adding contaminants to the clean side of the filter, and thus directly into the engine.
As usual, nice video. Do you prefer the mag pads over the ZL1 lift pads? Also, I saw a video of yours where I saw you put the jack stand on the rear rubber cone, is that your go to jack stand point when working on the rear? Keep up the good vids.
@@WorkPlayDrive I rented a hellcat for a day and it never scraped the same places my scat pack currently scrapes. Scat pack is the scrape-iest car I've owned.
I bought the ZL1 2" mag pad for my 22 widebody charger but for the front of the vehicle where the pinch weld is the plastic rocker panel under the car (that says > Jack here
So, 7 quarts with Oil Cooler drain is what I was told by service dept when I bought my Redeye. Is that what you ended up putting in after your final fill?
Does the royal purple filter work on the 2019 Scatpack widebody cause I was looking into the royal purple filter not too long ago autozone and advanced auto parts told me it wouldn’t fit my car but I just heard you say you used it on your older Scatpack?
I used it in my 2015 Scat and it's the same for the hellcat as well. I just looked up the 2019 widebody scat and Amazon says it's compatible with that year as well
You guys need to be using the longer oil filterers. I use Mobil 1 p#M1301.. It worked on the other hemis. Cross reference the part # and use amsoil or RP if you really have to have the "best filter... It gives you over a half qt more capacity, and frees up the parasitic oil pump power loss a little.
For people asking themselves: Why doesn't he jack up the car on the rear differential? The Mercedes platform this car is build on tends to lose its wheel alignment if lifted at the differential.
Work Play Drive Hi I really love a what you are doing on your channel. I myself bought a 2015 Challenger SXT V8(Seriously no joke. My vin number proves it. It a special unicorn). I love the mods you are doing to your cars but sadly can do most of them myself due to the regulations in Germany. The previous owner mounted a Cervin's Shaker hood like the one on your old scat pack. Is it supposed to drain water of the shaker over the front of the engine block and fan? Or is something missing. I'm a bit concerned about corrosion.
Work Play Drive it a weird solution for drainage. Even the factory shaker does that... It has the engine of the R/T and all the disadvantages of the SXT. It didn't even have a spoiler from the factory which means no backup camera(and the shitty 5.4" in display). BUT it has a weird Leather interior that wasn't available for that car and the door panels have some weird cloth. It must have been a special factory order since the model numbers above and below are just normal R/Ts.
You can wait until the Oil life indicator tells you to change the oil or 6 Months, whatever comes first. I believe the indicator comes on at 15% I have a short commute to work so I do my oil every 6 months, somewhere around 45% I waited longer because I needed a sunny weekend to film this video.
Hey, really enjoy watching you actually put in the wrench time on your own vehicle. Very thorough and clear about what you are doing. Keep it up. I’ve got a 392 ScatPack coming in a week and I’m already ordering parts. Can you post a link to those jack stands. Look perfect for that car.
Thank you 🙏 I enjoy doing the work to relax. The jack stands are ESCO 10499 Low Profile Jack Stand (1ea) - amzn.to/2mDvReU and I’ve been using them for a long time and they are re perfect for all the jack points on the challenger.
Work Play Drive thanks for the response, ZL1 actually restocked and I caught them. This weekend going to put on that MFER-1 based on your recommendation!
I really don’t like this video…. I just came to watch how to properly jack up my 2020 R/T to mount a STO N SHO and I ended up ordering jack stands, a jack, a pin removal tool, a Fumoto drain valve and an oil filter for my upcoming oil change… This is getting out of hand… 🤦🏼♂️ But seriously, what a great series of videos! 👍🏼 Very informative, well explained and geared towards actual maintenance instead of alpha male boasting behavior. Yes, we have masculine cars, I don’t need to be remembered of that, I need to know how to properly and carefully maintain them and you fill that slot perfectly! Keep up the good work and keep your son interested in all things technical! Looking forward to your next vid! 👍🏼
They are a single pad, I know they're a bit costly but they are not made of cheap pot metal like some of the $12 I've picked up. I learned early on having a cheap pot metal jack pad side wall snap off is no fun.
Thanks for your answer. I have an interest in installing Diode Dynamic interior footwell kit with Bluetooth control. What is your opinion. Thanks Also I tried swapping my Challenger’s lights to LED it was a total disaster. What’s your opinion on LED’s Thanks
You do not need to fill up the oil filter with oil before placing it in because some oil filters screw in from the side, so how are you going to fill those up? you can’t it will all drain out and once you start the car up that oil filter gets filled up within 2 seconds
Hey pal, great video! I noticed you have a Magnum in the driveway. I’ve got one as well, where do you put the jack on your Magnum? I don’t want to damage anything
What's the name of those jack stands and where did you get them? Do they come with the round pads attached? Gonna change the oil in my Redeye in February. Thanks!
They are the ESCO 10499 Low Profile Jack Stand (1ea) - amzn.to/2mDvReU. The round rubber pads on to are included. These by far are the best stands I have ever used.
There is the cross members in the front, couldn't you lift it there with your low profile jack that way you aren't having to lift one side at a time? In other words....lifting front and center on that cross member?
I am trying to figure out the best way to lift my Challenger....going to need to do the first oil change soon and I am looking to pull out the CDV while its up in the air...the car is in winter storage so its no emergency anyway....but I don't know if I feel safe lifting one side at a time like that....
I'm not going to argue with anyone about it one way or another. I've built Engines for close to 40 years. I've worked for several top engine manufacturers, and that's what they all say. Things sure have changed, I'd build a HP 440 or Hemi pre-72 I always broke the engine in with non detergent oil for the first 500 miles. It would carbon up the rings for a good seal then change it out with some good oil. It worked great. I need to change the oil in my 14 srt core. I changed it once at about 200 miles. I just feel better knowing it has some quality oil in it. I changed the six speed gear box and the rear differential at the same time. I haven't changed it since. It has 4000 miles on it now and need to change it soon. The engine manufacturers say to change it every six months regardless of mileage. These new oil classifications are B.S. it's all about the manufacturers making some extra bucks, the oil companies have to buy the new rating and get a cut of every qt sold.
This is perhaps the best oil change DIY I've come across on youtube. You're organized and pay attention to detail and it shows. Even down to the description of items used. Very thorough. Thanks!
Thank you, glad to help
Great video, and you're a good dad for letting your son help. He'll remember for a long time.

It is completely possible to do this with a regular jack and stands. Only differences are, you have to put the back of the car up first every time. On these particular cars, once the car is back down on the ground each individual tire should be jacked up to get the tires to sit back on the ground properly, there is about 3 inches movement to the camber because of the independent suspension droop. I have had many people tell me I'm crazy until they watched me do it, it appears to be more prominent in the rear.

Yep he had more important things to do 😂
I had a similar drain plug that was spring loaded back in the mid 80’s I think I got it from JC Whitney those things are great. I put it on my 1983 Olds 98
JC Whitney brings back memories, Just after high school my buddy and I were always browsing that catalog ordering stuff for our projects.

Question is it really necessary to do the engine oil cooler because only little bit of oil came out. Do you know if Dodge Hellcat manual recommends to do the engine oil cooler drainage?

Always best to prime the filter👌
Yes but no hard will come of the filter is not primed.
I've heard the opposite from mechanics. They said that putting oil in the filter before installing risks adding contaminants to the clean side of the filter, and thus directly into the engine.

I personally find it better to put the jack on the pinch weld and the stand on the puck in the rear.
My fumoto is the same exact part number. And it hit my oil pan at some point in tightening it.

I bought the ZL1 2" mag pad for my 22 widebody charger but for the front of the vehicle where the pinch weld is the plastic rocker panel under the car (that says > Jack here
Is it too long? I know ZL1 has a 1” pinch weld jack pad as well.
@@WorkPlayDrive The pinch weld part fits but the base of the mag pad hits the under part of the rocker panel so the jack would be pushing on it
ILSAC GF-6 is the only certification that matters. If you want to go above and beyond, change your oil more often. I do mine every 1000 miles.
So what if I don’t have jack pads. Can I still jack it in that spot?
It depends on your jack setup. Most jacks will bend the pinch weld.

The previous owner mounted a Cervin's Shaker hood like the one on your old scat pack.
Is it supposed to drain water of the shaker over the front of the engine block and fan? Or is something missing. I'm a bit concerned about corrosion.
@@sneff1052 the SXT V8 sounds interesting, and Correct The water drains down the front between the belts and the fan.
Work Play Drive it a weird solution for drainage. Even the factory shaker does that...
It has the engine of the R/T and all the disadvantages of the SXT. It didn't even have a spoiler from the factory which means no backup camera(and the shitty 5.4" in display). BUT it has a weird Leather interior that wasn't available for that car and the door panels have some weird cloth.
It must have been a special factory order since the model numbers above and below are just normal R/Ts.
Where did you get that red thing?? The one that has the remove before flight thing
Those are the premium Mag pads from ZL1 Addons, they are a little costly, but after 4 years my car still had flawless pinch welds ;)
What oil life percentage should you change the oil?
You can wait until the Oil life indicator tells you to change the oil or 6 Months, whatever comes first. I believe the indicator comes on at 15%
I have a short commute to work so I do my oil every 6 months, somewhere around 45% I waited longer because I needed a sunny weekend to film this video.
@@WorkPlayDrive on these special cars you really need to change every 5000 in perfect conditions.. 2500 if its severe. I used to work for Dodge...
Does a 2018 charger RT have that oil cooler that needs draining as well?
Nope this is only on the hellcat.
Hey, really enjoy watching you actually put in the wrench time on your own vehicle. Very thorough and clear about what you are doing. Keep it up. I’ve got a 392 ScatPack coming in a week and I’m already ordering parts. Can you post a link to those jack stands. Look perfect for that car.
Thank you 🙏 I enjoy doing the work to relax. The jack stands are ESCO 10499 Low Profile Jack Stand (1ea) - amzn.to/2mDvReU and I’ve been using them for a long time and they are re perfect for all the jack points on the challenger.
So the oil cooler gets supplied with the 6.5 q that you put in the engine?
Yes the cooler is inline and the oil flows through it.
I searched for the Mag Pads and they are sold out on ZL1, do you have another you highly recommend?
I found them on Amazon amzn.to/37y91J0
Work Play Drive thanks for the response, ZL1 actually restocked and I caught them. This weekend going to put on that MFER-1 based on your recommendation!
🙃 awesome
I really don’t like this video…. I just came to watch how to properly jack up my 2020 R/T to mount a STO N SHO and I ended up ordering jack stands, a jack, a pin removal tool, a Fumoto drain valve and an oil filter for my upcoming oil change… This is getting out of hand… 🤦🏼♂️
But seriously, what a great series of videos! 👍🏼 Very informative, well explained and geared towards actual maintenance instead of alpha male boasting behavior. Yes, we have masculine cars, I don’t need to be remembered of that, I need to know how to properly and carefully maintain them and you fill that slot perfectly! Keep up the good work and keep your son interested in all things technical!
Looking forward to your next vid! 👍🏼
Thank you helping others is my goal, and my apologies to your wallet ;)
Where did you get the absorbent mat you were laying on?
It’s a standard quilted moving blanket. I found it at harbor freight
Work Play Drive thank you.
Do those zl1 jack pads come as a 4 pack or single?
They are a single pad, I know they're a bit costly but they are not made of cheap pot metal like some of the $12 I've picked up. I learned early on having a cheap pot metal jack pad side wall snap off is no fun.
Same process for a 2016 SRT 392 challenger?
Check out my other video for the 392 👉 ruclips.net/video/FXWK_aZk-qw/видео.html
How did you know where to place the jack stands?
I get all my information from the service manual.
@@WorkPlayDrive Thanks And that is the on-line chilton?
Yep chilton online 👍
Do you still use rim pro tec on your wheels.
Thanks
I have a set for the widebody just waiting for the weather to warm up so I can install them
Thanks for your answer.
I have an interest in installing Diode Dynamic interior footwell kit with Bluetooth control.
What is your opinion.
Thanks
Also I tried swapping my Challenger’s lights to LED it was a total disaster.
What’s your opinion on LED’s
Thanks
Sorry no experience with DD I purchase from lighting Trendz. They have been great with install and support.
Is that triangle on a Charger also? I feel stupid. I never knew that was there.
Good question, sorry not sure on that, hopefully a charger owner will stop by and assist!
Yes we have a triangle.
I have the 2020 sxt dodge challenger so do that oil change work for my car as well?
The process is a little different and different oil and filter.
How many tons can that Jack hold
The low profile jack is a 3 Ton
You do not need to fill up the oil filter with oil before placing it in because some oil filters screw in from the side, so how are you going to fill those up? you can’t it will all drain out and once you start the car up that oil filter gets filled up within 2 seconds
Hey pal, great video! I noticed you have a Magnum in the driveway. I’ve got one as well, where do you put the jack on your Magnum? I don’t want to damage anything
I use the pinch welds but I always use a mag pad to prevent crushing them. amzn.to/3yjWO9w
@@WorkPlayDrive Gotcha, thank you sir!
Hey I have one question Dose the oil drain valve fit a 2012 dodge chager R/T?
Not sure but you can visit their site and look up the model you need
What’s the site and the name of that valve
Fumoto F106 drain valve - amzn.to/2oEa8Vx
Hi, what size torque wrench you have?
1/2” drive if you want one the link is in the description 👍
@@WorkPlayDrive Thank you
Surprising NJ allows drivers to own Hellcats
Great video.. If I can get a Hell Cat (My dream car) it will help me.. thank you very much.. :))
I wish you luck in getting your dream car. 🧡
Thank u this really help me .. I’m a woman but I like to do simple things only!!😉
You’re welcome 😊
Does changing the oil on a charger the same ?
The engine oil change portion yes, but the maintenance cover removal is a little different.
What's the name of those jack stands and where did you get them? Do they come with the round pads attached? Gonna change the oil in my Redeye in February. Thanks!
They are the ESCO 10499 Low Profile Jack Stand (1ea) - amzn.to/2mDvReU. The round rubber pads on to are included. These by far are the best stands I have ever used.
@@WorkPlayDrive
Thanks for the quick reply! I'm gonna definitely get these!
18:21 Nice rust car passing by lmao !
😂😏
Do you know the torque spec on the stock oil pan drain plug?
20 Ft. Lbs. for both the oil pan plug and the Oil cooler plug.
@@WorkPlayDrive thank you. 👍
I see no links??
There is the cross members in the front, couldn't you lift it there with your low profile jack that way you aren't having to lift one side at a time? In other words....lifting front and center on that cross member?
I am trying to figure out the best way to lift my Challenger....going to need to do the first oil change soon and I am looking to pull out the CDV while its up in the air...the car is in winter storage so its no emergency anyway....but I don't know if I feel safe lifting one side at a time like that....
That’s not one of the jack points mentioned in the manual. Lift from the points shown for the best results.
I like to use ramps instead lot faster .2
Do charger next
that's not a little boy, that's a lil man
He’s a heck of a lot bigger now 😏
The reason the oil should be at operation temp, is to suspend any metal in the oil. Yeah it's a pain but you should never change oil on a cold engine.
Thats what the filter is for... Going past 3000 miles on this kind of engine is crazy though.
I'm not going to argue with anyone about it one way or another. I've built Engines for close to 40 years. I've worked for several top engine manufacturers, and that's what they all say. Things sure have changed, I'd build a HP 440 or Hemi pre-72 I always broke the engine in with non detergent oil for the first 500 miles. It would carbon up the rings for a good seal then change it out with some good oil. It worked great. I need to change the oil in my 14 srt core. I changed it once at about 200 miles. I just feel better knowing it has some quality oil in it. I changed the six speed gear box and the rear differential at the same time. I haven't changed it since. It has 4000 miles on it now and need to change it soon. The engine manufacturers say to change it every six months regardless of mileage. These new oil classifications are B.S. it's all about the manufacturers making some extra bucks, the oil companies have to buy the new rating and get a cut of every qt sold.
@@azraelspectre9089 sounds good man. Id trust you... I change mine super early. I get yelled at all the time for it.
22:48 my guess.
If your anything like me you’ve eaten to many taco’s and become too gassy 🤷🏼♂️
😂😂😂😂
Works great unless you have the sideskirts installed, then the rear is covered up 😒
