2021 2022 Ford F-150 Raptor Gen 3 Oil Change How To

- First oil change on my 2022 Ford F150 Raptor 3.5L HO Ecoboost. I show the tools and supplies needed and how to change the oil yourself and reset the instrument cluster oil life monitor.
I accidently published this video in 4:3 size format instead of 16:9 so it is a bit more square and the sides are cutoff. Whoops! I won't do that again.
Another great video! Nothing worse than oil leaking off of those skid plates for a week after you change the oil😂
If I could like your comment 10 times, I would. You are 100% correct. If the truck isn't up on a hoist, the only way to do it without a mess is to take the skid plates off!
This a great DIY video. Super thorough and patient.
Thanks!
Excellent video & agree on taking a littke extra time to remove the covers/plates entirely (instead of just the access panels). I went from a Chevy ZR2 that was super easy to the Raptor & heard stories of oil going everywhere atop the skid plate.
The color looks so good in the light of the garage! Your videos have me so hyped up for mine to get built! Lol
I have 6000K LED lights in the garage which are basically the same as out in the sunshine so it makes the color really pop! Glad you like the videos, thanks for watching!
I wish you would’ve done the video the proper way without removing plates that aren’t required or recommended…
I like everything to be clean when I'm done. If you do it with the truck on ramps (therefore not level) instead of a hoist, oil will run on top of the plates. You are completely welcome to do how you prefer, and I'll continue to do it the way I prefer.
@@gearzgadgets5872 why would anyone put the truck on ramps when everything is accessible from the ground? Odd 🫤
@@sonofsal5778 I prefer a creeper rather than laying on the ground because I'm old. I prefer my nose doesn't bang into the undercarriage so I drive the truck up on ramps. It takes all of 17 seconds to do. You can do it however you like. That's the great thing about America.
Awesome video, thanks! Great truck you have too-the color is the best! Motocraft semi/syn is excellent oil too, good choice! not sure why people sometimes question the exact oil the manufacturer recommends using in their engines!? Keep up the great work.
Sweet truck !!!
You do realize ford redesigned the drain plug so you don’t need to remove all these plates right?
There’s videos about the redesign of the drain plug.
As I mentioned in the video, it can be done without removing the skid plates. But, when up on ramps, rather than level on a hoist, it is near impossible to do without getting any oil on top of the skid plates that will later drip onto the ground. With the plates removed, I can get up in there and wipe out the oil filter drip tray and clean everything up just like brand new.
@@gearzgadgets5872 well maybe next time you could just remove the engine then you won’t get any oil on you
@@edwardscottiidds4941 might have to give that a whirl!
@@gearzgadgets5872 funnel it properly (you can use tin foil) and dry up the plastic pieces where oil comes out of the filter with shop towel and you'll be good to go. No mess and no need for the skid plate removal overkill. Done this several times with my 37 pp. Prep work is always key. Also, switch to full synthetic, that ford blend is crap.
Does the crossbar between skid plate A and B not exist in your world?
Nice truck and garage. I just got my 22 in. Any reason you didn’t use the full synthetic?
If I remember correctly my 19 Raptor manual listed motorcraft full synthetic.
Thank you! The manual lists both the motorcraft semi synthetic and full synthetic. Since I'm going to stick to pretty short change intervals, this stuff will be plenty good.
What do you do to document for future proof that all these DIY oil changes were actually done? I’d hate to have a Maint.issue and have Ford say “you didn’t keep up the oil changes as prescribed so warranty claim denied. Thx!
I record maintenance in the FordPass app on my phone. It is very quick and easy! I also scan the oil/filter purchase receipts and save them on my computer.
The little black plate is part# HL3Z-7222-D
Thank you very much sir
You are welcome, glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
When you go to reinstall the drain plug for the oil pan is there some kind of rubber o ring or gasket on the plug that you have to replace after a while? I have watched other videos on how to change the oil on cars in general because I eventually want to do it myself as I have never changed oil before and I have read a few times that you have to replace a gasket on the plug but im wondering if you don't have to do this for the raptor.
Yes, there is a rubber seal on the drain plug. But, in my experience, it does not need to be replaced. It is bonded to the drain plug, so unless it gets torn or damaged for some reason, it is reusable. Good luck!
When I buy new vehicles I change oil right after I get home straight from the dealer. Then I change oil 3 times every 60 miles. Also install an oil catch can.
Never hurts to have fresh oil!
Good grief, tell me you don’t know anything without telling me.
What a waste of money, time and oil. SMH
Why do you need to put it on ramps? It’s got plenty of clearance to move around and do the oil change 😂
It just makes it easier in my opinion.
@@gearzgadgets5872 I can see that for certain people such as difficulty getting under the truck from the stock height. I did mine on flat ground without ramps, oil from the filter drained directly through the square cut out below it. Nothing drained onto the panel or around it. But I did break the filter loose a few turn and let that steady stream drain out. That’s prolly why it didn’t go everywhere. To each their own, best thing is there’s more than one way to drain oil lol. Loving the gen 3 so far.
@@Thamac15 I'm enjoying mine as well! Almost time to change the oil again soon!
Here I am at 8k miles doing my first oil change 😂
My code orange has been delayed again! 😭
Oh noo :( the wait is hard but worth it!
What’s your build date now? Same for me!
Any way you can tell me the part number of plate "C" the small plate to remove for oil change
I believe it is HL3V-7A035-BC
@@gearzgadgets5872 Is that the number off of the large skid plate or the small removable one connected to it?
@@jakeherron6143 that is the number directly off of the small removable one.
@@gearzgadgets5872 Thank you so much its been very difficult to track that part number down
@@jakeherron6143 no problem, happy to help.
Crazy? No, changed mine at 500
Right on! Sounds like you and I are the only ones....
6 quarts of oil cost $30? Zero chance.
5qt jug of Motorcraft synthetic blend 5W-30, which is the OEM oil, for $25.98 at Walmart. I'd be happy to send you the link if you need.
If that’s all the oil you’re putting in and i any cost you 30 so much dollar is your not putting in full synthetic you’re making a mistake
Thank you for your opinion. I put in the motorcraft oil specified by Ford motor company for this vehicle so I think it will do plenty well.
Don't understand if you can afford this truck why would you not take it to a mechanic? It doesn't have to be a dealership because we all know how useless they are 😎 just find yourself a real mechanic and stop dripping oil all over the pavement...
Because I am more than capable and enjoy working on vehicles.
But what about the mess you leave everywhere you go??? Don't you think you are making a mess on every street you park on? My friend is not allowed to park on my driveway because he's capable and enjoy changing his raptors oil 🤣🤣🤣 i go to a certified mechanic..... no mess no fuss, you should put liqui Molly in it 😉
@@rastakalliman76 mess??? What mess?? I am entirely capable of changing the oil and not leaving any kind of mess. That's why I took all the skid plates off so that there are not drips onto the skid plates that will later drip onto the ground. I don't have one single drip in my garage or driveway. Thanks for the recommendation, but I'll keep using the oil that the manufacturer recommends.
