How to replace the engine oil and oil filter on GMC Terrain?

The process to replace engine oil and filter requires raising a supported vehicle on suitable stands first. A drain pan placed beneath the oil Drain Plug exposes the plug for removal which allows complete oil drainage before installing the Drain Plug. Lower the vehicle after installing the Drain Plug with 25 nm torque then continuing with 18 lb ft. An en-4487 - Oil Filter wrench should be used to break free the Oil Filter cap so you can accomplish both its removal and the detachment of the filter while both remain joined. Add cleaning engine oil with 5w30 classification to the oil-ring on the Oil Filter cap followed by new Oil Filter application to the same filter cap . Tighten both the new Oil Filter cap along with the filter into place while avoiding excessive torque force to prevent potential oil leakage through damaged parts. You should utilize the en-4487 - Oil Filter wrench to tighten the Oil Filter cap until it reaches full seating but never exceed 25 nm (18 lb ft). Oil content should be added to the engine before completion.

GMC Terrain cars use the Oil Filter to filter out contaminants and maintain adequate viscosity of the oil moving in the engine. Filter technologies include the replaceable element cartridge filter, and the spin-on filter; in such filters, efficiency and filter capacity have to be balanced to safeguard the engine. Performance filters are usually made of heavy materials that can stand the pressure of oil and they filter very well without restricting the flow. These filters are able to capture as much as 99% of the dangerous contaminants while at the same time promoting high levels of oil flow rate through the use of specially synthesized synthetic media. Therefore, this analysis has demonstrated that the development of oil filters to higher types played an important role in increasing the efficiency and durability of GMC Terrain vehicles' engines.
