>>16516279
How would this be a maymay? It's as simple as changing a light bulb, but most people don't have the means to dispose of it, that's all

>>16516279

What? It's really not that difficult.

Did you forget to put the drainbolt on?

Couldn't get the filter off?

>it's as simple as changing a lightbulb
No it isn't, even if you disregard disposal (you're not supposed to throw CFLs away so let's use that as an example). Changing a lightbulb requires no mechanical knowledge whatsoever, all you need to know is the type of screw and the wattage and "righty tighty, lefty loosey". But with a car you need to know how to get to the oil pan, how to drain your oil, how to change the filter, and what filter you need, in addition to the type of oil you need.
PLUS you need special equipment, because unless you're driving a huge SUV you'll need to jack the car up, and you'll also need the right type of wrench to open your oil section.
TLDR, changing oil is more complicated than changing a lightbulb.

>>16517742
you don't need any mechanical knowledge to change your own oil
you need a wrench ,a bucket and your car comes with a jack

>>16518613
My car has an air pump instead of a spare and jack

>>16518613
you actually use the jack your came with for work? you got jack stands?

>>16518624
well that's kind shitty
but it's lighter

>>16518625
Shhh
Darwinism at work.

>>16518625
no i don't but if you got no choice that better than nothing
you can place your spare tire as a jack stand if you don't trust your jack

>>16517742

Needing a jack/stands/ramps is the only legitimate point you made, though they're hardly "special equipment". You did forget to mention a torque wrench and oil filter wrench, but they're the kind of shit you can pick up for under $20 a piece. Even a half decent jack shouldn't run up more than $60.

>But with a car you need to know how to get to the oil pan, how to drain your oil, how to change the filter, and what filter you need, in addition to the type of oil you need.

All of which can be found in under 5 minutes for just about every brand of car in existence with google. There's nothing you need to know about doing an oil change that can't be found on the internet, even small details such as the precise location and wrench size needed for the drain plug and how much it needs to be torqued up to afterwards.

Changing your own oil is a fucking meme

>>16518709
>he pumps out his oil for half an hour

I'm too povertymode to buy an oil pan, otherwise I'd probably do it.

I changed my bike's coolant though, it was long, grueling, temporarily (now that i think about it I don't remember what became of them) ruined a pair of jeans. But, oh, the satisfaction.

This is true. I had the old oil standing in my shed for like two years before I got tired of looking at it so I threw it in the dumpster.

This seems terible for your car, part of the reason the drain plug is on the lowest point of the car is any metal or carbon flakes are going to settle to the lowest point. Draining the oil flushes everything, pumping it will leave it dirty

The filter on my car is on top of the engine. No need for me to crawl under my car. Ive been using this method for a long time. I works well. People that have boats with engines in the hull use this method also.

>>16519798
The oil filter is suppose to catch all the crap in your oil. If you have flakes in your oil pan you have bigger problems to worry about. Also, you stir all that shit up if you run the engine to drive up ramps. It get suspended in the oil for a period of time.
