I just changed my oil yesterday for the first time. If you read through AK370's DIY oil change thread before and you know what to expect, its really simple and straightforward. I made a list of steps for myself, something basic and easy to understand so I wouldn't have to keep looking online. Just buy exactly what AK purchased (Filter, Filtermag, Magnetic drain plug, etc.) they are all quality products and the oil really comes down to you, whether you want to switch to synthetic or not, and what brand of oil you use. Just make sure you follow the manual's recommendations of API certified oils in a 5w-30 weight. For the oil cooler, I have no experience, but there are like 5 threads about DIY installs(ok, maybe not 5). Just do a search and read up! Good luck!
