    • Be careful not to touch the engine as it will be hot.

    • Apply a small amount of fresh oil to the edge of the new filter.

    • Use your hand to tighten the new filter until it fits snugly.

    • Replace the drain plug.

    • Use the 14mm socket torque wrench to tighten the drain plug until the wrench makes a "clicking" noise.

    • Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean.

    • Reinsert and remove the dipstick to see if the oil is between the two dots on the dipstick.

    • The job is finished if the oil is between or slightly above the two dots.

    • If the oil is below the two dots, add new oil in small increments into the oil fill tube until the dipstick shows it is between the two dots.

    • Do not pour oil into the dipstick tube.

This is not applicable to the 2019 (and probably later) models. They now use canister filters located under the skid plate.
