Taco gets greasy... fresh oil change!!! 2017 Toyota Tacoma

Taco turned 5000 miles and the truck was lighting up as a reminder to do scheduled maintenance.

If you didn't know the scheduled oil change is at 10,000 so forget about getting a freebie anytime sooner.

This video I talk about the tools needed and some tips. I tried to streamline it when possible but it's a tad bit lengthy.

Great day to work on the Bimmer! It was just like summer.

It was mid 70s here in SoCal today and it felt like a summer day. But wait...it's November!!!

My goal today on the E90 was to do a drain and fill of transmission fluid and the rear end. Why did BMW use only 1 opening? I really hate the smell of gear oil. Even fresh oil stinks.

Transmission fluid wasn't as bad but still stinks. Look how awful the fluid color is. Glad I changed it.



I am not fond of raising car but I gotta do what I gotta do. Ended up doing it twice because I had to drive it around to be sure it the fluids go through the system then check the fluid levels. Geez I would die for a car lift. lol
