2005 Chevrolet Corvette Oil Filter Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the engine oil and oil filter on 2005 Chevrolet Corvette?

  A: Open the hood to access the engine oil fill cap then proceed by removing this cap. Climb your car then unscrew the oil pan Drain Plug to let engine oil drain into a designated container. Extract the engine Oil Filter from its position inside the engine block. Install the new Oil Filter after making sure you remove the old filter gasket fully from service. If it remains, remove it. The new Oil Filter should be fitted to the engine block at a 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.) torque level. Use the torque wrench to tighten the oil pan Drain Plug to 25 nm torque specification (18 ft. Lbs.). The engine requires a specific amount of designed engine oil along with the correct type but should have no additives due to corvette engine specifications. Follow up by checking the oil level and installing the fill cap and closing the hood before resetting the engine oil life monitor.
