- In this video, we do a oil change on a 2018 Chervolet Sonic with the 1.4 liter turbo engine. This should be similar for any Ecotec turbo engine.

This was painful to watch....
It's like a motorcycle oil filter that's internal?
Basically
It is a cartridge system used in most European cars, especially German cars. Also used by Toyota and Hyundai in most models. This is due to EU environmental regulations, since disposing of just a paper cartridge is a lot less hazardous waste than a metal canister with paper filter inside. Keep in mind that there are 2.5 billion cars on the road in the world, and most of them should be using 2 oil filters per year.
@Mark-rw3kw in the US, Toyota is actually going back go canister filters on almost all cars. As someone who used to manager a oil change center, local dealers liked to put the caps on so tight you had to break them to get them off.
@@Mylifeinthepits I assume you mean Toyota is going back to the metal spin-on type of filters. Some people refer to cannister and cartridge filters to mean the same thing (only the paper element gets changed). I think the reason why Toyota is switching back is because they made their own cartridge filter assemblies, and they were generally poor quality compared to the German ones from Hengst and Mahle. I read many complaints about the Toyota cartridge systems on Toyota owner forums, such as threads being poorly manufactured. Plus Toyota had a weird method of draining the oil before removing the filter cap that most people didn't understand or botched using it. My 2009 Hyundai Genesis has a Mahle filter system with a very durable plastic (probably polycarbonate) cover, and never had a problem with it.
4.2 qts of oil to do an oil change? Think I would throw in 4qts & call it a day……
