2008 Cadillac SRX Oil Filter Parts and Q&A

• Q: How to replace the engine oil and oil filter on 2008 Cadillac SRX?

  A: Start by turning off the engine ignition. A six-point socket can eliminate the Oil Filter cap while recognizing the oil flow from the filter chamber in the adapter housing as a normal condition which does not require insertiing a new adapter. Begin by removing the Oil Filter cartridge while also lifting and using support to elevate the vehicle. After positioning a suitable drain under the oil pan Drain Plug remove the plug while the oil drains completely out of the system. Replace the new o-ring seal on the oil pan Drain Plug and fasten it to a torque of 20 n.m (15 lb ft). Before adding the new Oil Filter cartridge to the vehicle position the Oil Filter cap threads with clean engine oil for protection against damage and easier replacement in the future. You should tighten the Oil Filter cap with a six-point socket until you reach 25 n.m (18 lb ft). Apply the oil fill cap while you add the recommended oil type and proper amount according to the fluid and lubricant recommendations and approximate fluid capacities.
