Car oil do i need to change it and how?
This is my first car, 2000 VW Golf 1.6 litter. I just bought it second hand and when i took the yellow stick out to see how much oil it has, its to the minimum as stated in the book. I called the person who sold me the car and he said he had an oil change at 58k miles and next service check is at 68k miles or in feb 08 next month. The car is at 64k miles. I also asked him what oil he used and he told me he uses Magnetic Castrol GTX and something about 15 -30 lw i didnt quite understand what he was telling me lol the car is on petrol btw. What should i do? should i buy a bottle of that stuff and just poor in the engine? also how should this be done? my friends told me poor only when engine is cool ..
thanks 4 any information.
sorry i dont know how to reply but i have another question in the book it says it expires february 08/2008 can i go tomorow and re-new it?
3,000 miles is the normal travel amount before you should do an oil change. It is helpful if the car has been run for a few minutes to warm up the oil, but you don't want it to run for too long or else the oil will be ridiculously hot and burn your fingers while you're pulling out the drain plug.
So, first things first...get out your owner's manual and determine the right type and quantity of oil your car will need. You should also replace the oil filter during at least every other oil change, so you may consider picking one of those up too.
Once you have the oil, you'll need to drain the old oil out. On the bottom side of the engine you will find your oil pan (have someone who knows something of cars identify any parts you are unfamiliar with!) Using a wrench, remove the oil plug and drain the oil into an appropriate container. The oil will start to come out before you have the plug fully removed, so you will definitely be getting some oil on you...wear gloves and a shirt you don't care too much about.
Once the oil flow has reduced to a mere trickle, you can reinstall the plug. Make sure it's tight, because loosing one while you're driving can completely destroy the motor.
Now would be the time to replace the filter if you purchased one. It will also be full of old oil and will require a filter wrench to remove. Before installing the new one, wet your finger with new oil and apply some to the seal on top of the filter.
Having done that, find the oil cap somewhere under your hood and remove it. A funnel will help you prevent a mess while pouring the new oil in. Pour in the correct amount as specified in your manual and reinstall the cap.
Clean up your mess and put away your tools...you're pretty much done. You might want to check the oil with the dipstick and look under the car to make sure there are no leaks.
Drive 3,000 miles and repeat. Congratulations, you're done!
