Q: How to service and repair the oil filter on Buick LeSabre?
A: Begin servicing and repairing the Oil Filter by properly supporting the vehicle while it is raised to the appropriate height. Place an oil drain pan underneath the engine oil Drain Plug before you take out the Drain Plug. Cleaning and inspecting the engine oil Drain Plug led to repairs or replacements when needed before moving on to inspect the sealing surface on the Oil Pan with corresponding replacement of the Oil Pan if necessary. Clean the Oil Filter adapter sealing surface and change or repair this component based on the inspection results. After placing a small amount of clean oil on the new Oil Filter gasket you must install the Oil Filter by performing three-quarter to one full turn after the gasket reaches the mounting surface. Proceed with installation of the engine oil Drain Plug while tightening it to 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.) after which move the vehicle to a lower position. Before starting the engine you need to check for leaks while you fill the engine compartment with the new oil.
Q: How to replace the engine oil and oil filter on Buick LaCrosse?
A: A vehicle must be raised and properly supported before starting engine oil and Oil Filter replacement work. Place the drain pan below the engine oil Drain Plug before removing it and replace any damaged Drain Plug with a new one. The proper order for replacement starts with engine oil Drain Plug removal followed by lower radiator air baffle and deflector removal then the Oil Filter removal. The replacement Oil Filter gasket requires clean oil for lubrication before installing the new filter by turning it to a maximum of 3/4 to 1 full turn after the gasket touches the mounting surface. The engine oil Drain Plug needs installation by following the torque specifications to 20 nm (15 ft. Lbs.), followed by reinstalling the lower radiator air baffle and deflector. The last installation step involves putting new engine oil into the machine.
Q: How to replace the engine oil and oil filter on Buick Regal?
A: The replacement of engine oil and Oil Filter requires raising and supporting the vehicle at the start. Set the oil drain pan under the engine oil Drain Plug before unplugging it. Drain Plug inspection shows need to replace or repair it while Oil Pan sealing surfaces need the same evaluation for replacement where necessary. After you remove the Oil Filter you need to clean its adapter sealing area followed by necessary adapter repair or replacement. Before attaching the new Oil Filter put a dab of clean oil onto the gasket then proceed to tighten it to a quarter to a full turn past when the gasket touches its mounting surface. Install the engine oil Drain Plug to 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.) torque then remove both the drain pan and raise the vehicle back to normal height. Following the new engine oil addition the motor should be started while also checking for any oil leak occurrence. Let the motor run idle while the drained oil returns into the bottom oil reservoir for several minutes. Secure the paper towel-cleaned oil level indicator back into position until the handle reaches the top of the tube. Look at the oil level by removing the indicator a second time while keeping the tip pointed downward. Your next step involves checking oil leaks while you also maintain the proper oil level by adding or draining oil from the vehicle.
