How to replace the engine oil and oil filter on 2009 Cadillac STS?

Question

Accepted Answer

Begin by turning off the ignition and taking out the front compartment sight shield if needed for access. A 6-point socket should be used to remove the Oil Filter cap where normal drainage from the Oil Filter chamber inside the adapter housing should be noted. The replacement of the Oil Filter adapter will not be needed for this situation. First remove the Oil Filter cartridge before raising and supporting the vehicle. Install a proper drain below where the oil pan Drain Plug resides before you remove the Drain Plug so all oil can completely drain out. Install the Drain Plug to the oil pan using a new o-ring seal and tighten it to 25 nm (18 lb ft). Afterward, lower the vehicle. Start by applying clean engine oil on the Oil Filter cap threads to safeguard its removal process while preparing it for future removal. Then put on the new Oil Filter cartridge. A 6-point socket must be used to install the Oil Filter cap while tightening it to 25 nm (18 lb in). Secure the oil fill cap before pouring the correct amount of oil into your engine. Reinstallation of the front compartment sight shield should be performed when necessary.
