Thank you sir for the video. I also remove the oil cap on the valve cover before draining the oil. It helps it come down faster. If I have any open quarts left I drop it in when it's almost done draining as a flush.
When ever your car are more than 10 years olds.The engine oils are coming out a little bit to dark.Now tries to changes your car engine oils in at 3,000- 4,000 miles at maximum instead of changing it at 5,000 miles.So the engine oils can able to lubricanting your car pistons and pistons rings alot more better and saving your engine pistons rings for in less wears and tears also less oils sludges too.If you're doing that,you can drive another 50-70 thousands more miles to your very old car easily.
The tip of the Dipstick broke on ours, its been like that about 6 mos, should I drop the pan and get the old piece out, or does it matter? They should reproduce an all-metal Dipstick, its dumb having a weak plastic tip that can break.
I change my oil in my car's every 5,000 miles One Car is a 2002 another a 2004 and last a 2013 and also a 2020 4 wheel SUV, I let the dealer do, but the older Cars 02 and 04 at 5,000 miles the oil is still clean looking? The 2013 I could Probably use that drained oil in the 2004 as New oil that's how clean that engine is. Your thick black oil looks like done every 15,000 or 20,000 stop and go city miles certainly not constant change at 5,000 miles! Also maybe it doesn't really matter to you but after going through everything to change the Oil and Filter I would at least wipe out the Funnel of the Old Dirty Oil takes 5 Seconds and I know the pan still has old dirty oil and no doubt sludge but a simple wipe out doest hurt.

ohh so that is why my mom told me to change it at 3K instead of 5K
Useful vid, Mr. Dan :D
Beautiful summer day
Great vid, to the point.
Thank you for the video, sir! This is immensely helpful, as I just purchased a 2004 Camry!
I always take the cap off the engine for the oil and the dip stick i remove as well just so it all flows out. But all in all a great video.
I was about to mentioned the same things..with the cap off the oil drains better and faster too..
Got to make sure you say quarts
you said gallons at first
But it’s a great video
If you still have this car you should watch how you put the funnel in those engine’s can get damaged by putting the funnel in the wrong way
Did you reset the maintenance light?

Do you have to change the oil plug every time you change your oil?
No, you only have to change the filter along with the oil. The plug (screw), you just screw it back.
