Got inspired and changed mine today at 29,700. Just some thoughts on the process... Draining, no big deal. Easy to get to, filler first, drain plug next.
The oil looked good, just a little grime on the magnetic plug... Let it drain and had lunch. Put in some mobile one which has a pointy end that you clip off like a tube of caulking. Had some clear tubing laying around with 1/2 I.D. That just fit the end of the quart, so I cut about 8 inches and put it in the filler and squeezed the quart container and had most of the quart in within a minute. Rather than try to squeeze out the rest, switched to the second quart and got most of it in. I combined the leftover first quart into the second quart container and squeezed it in till it came back out, plunged it and done.
I purchased a crummy $7 pump but never used it. I'm sure i would have been wearing it if the clear tubing came loose but I guess I was lucky. So anyway it worked for me and was done in no time.
