This video was done on a 2002 Chrysler Town & Country 3.3L v6 and should work on 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007 Chrysler Town & Country and also Dodge Carvans. But it should be very similar to all other makes and models, make sure to check oil type and filter type before beginning.

That cat litter hack is no joke a lifesaver! I spilt almost an entire jug of oil on my garage floor. That stuff sucked it right up and cleanup became a breeze!
Yes! It does help out a lot. i don't have a cat, but purchase a container of this about once or twice a year for any possible spills. Also works for many other engine chemicals (ATF, Coolant, etc)!
Also amazing for getting unstuck in snow and ice.
Those oil can wrenches are the best! I bought one last year and love it! Makes it so much easier to get them off!
I totally agree!
Very helpful. Always great to watch videos like this. Proper and articulate language. Have a nice day.
Thanks so much? !
Thanks for your work, I've seen tons of oil chage video and yours has the best camera angel for work underneath the car, well done!
Thanks for the positive comment! There’s not much clearance under the vehicle without a large lift. Hope you were able to change your oil and know where everything was located. Have a good week!
Well done! Thanks for making this step by step video!
You are welcome!
Thanks so much for this video! You made it seem really easy and your explanations were perfect.
Thanks for watching and commenting! Glad you were able to successful complete your project
Why do you put tape on your sockets? I noticed this on another of yours too.
I do it on my main two vehicles for changing oil. I have a set of sockets that I only use when doing car mechanics. It just saves some time. You can see writing on the side of this one and it says '16mm Van"
Very, very thorough! Thanks for such a well done video!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks man helped me out a lot 🙏
You are welcome. Thanks for watching!
Great camera work ❤️Keep it up
Thanks! I appreciate your comment!
Great instructions. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Awesome tutorial! Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Excelente video!Gracias por los consejos!
You are welcome. I'm glad it helped you!
Best of luck on your channel
Thanks, you too!
I have that same vehicle! Thanks for showing me how to do this!
You are welcome. Good luck on your project
Good stuff here! I've like how you remove the bolt and didn't drop it in the pan... I've done that too many times and had to go digging around in my pan. I bet your pan that filters down keeps the bolt on top instead of in the middle of all of it if you do end up dropping it.
Yeah, I’d you drop it then it gets messy really fast. I like to add some tension towards to the front of motor and keep my index finger on it then you are normally pretty. I split a little more than normal on my hand. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Very good video a clean
Glad you liked it! Thank you!
Hey man . Thanks
You are welcome! Hope it helped :)
You can also use used oil for all kinds home stuff. I use mine as a mix in to sand for holding hot crucible when smelting out precious metals from scrap.
That’s great! I once was on a mission trip in Honduras and we used it to paint fence posts. I was kinda shocked by the experience and it’s def not good for the environment but it helps deal up wood fence posts from getting rotten quickly like it would there.
Just changed the oil and old Karen thanks for the help
Glad “Karen” is ready to get back on the road for another 5,000 miles. Glad the video helped!
We call our “Chewy” or Chewbacca bc of Star Wars and it’s color.
Why the high mileage instead of standard oil or full synthetic oil?
The standard oil is good. I prefer to do the BLEND of conventional oil and synthetic. Once you go Synthetic you are not supposed to use anything else. New cars were designed for that type of oil This almost 20-year-old van was not originally created for that type of oil.
Do the filter grades make a big difference? I've never put much thought into what grade I buy. I normally do whatever is the cheapest.
I never buy the cheap ones. I do the middle grade ones.
Why you use 5W30 instead of 5W20 ?
You put 5 quarts in? I have a 2007 town and country, its a 6 cylinder, can I still pour 6 quarts or it has to 5??🤔
Start with 5 and see where it’s at on the fill line on your dip stick. I’d stick with the recommended amount marked on your dip stick and in your owners manual. I’m not certain what an 07 would use bc it’s the next generation of model up.
@@MCFIXIT ok great 👌 thank you😁🙏
Can you do this with out jacking up the car?
I doubt it. I’m a bigger guy and there no way unless you jack it with a jack, ramps, or lift. Hope that helps!
To smear the new oil on the rubber gasket of the new filter, you said "You do not want to spill a brand new 5 GALLON jug all over the ground...". The vehicle takes only 4 1/2 QUARTS of oil.
Correct. Its a 5 gallon container. There should be a little left over after you get done.
