• Q: How to replace the engine oil and oil filter on 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer?

  A: Begin engine oil and filter replacement by taking out the oil fill cap together with lifting the vehicle. The first step involves draining oil from underneath the engine using the oil pan Drain Plug followed by use of a suitable oil collection container. Make use of an appropriate wrench to detach the Oil Filter but also verify that the filter seal stays off the engine block. The Oil Filter housing requires cleaning while the replacement seal needs application of clean engine oil. Apply clean engine oil to the new Oil Filter before installing it and tightening to 17 nm (22 lb ft) and 150 degrees. After the vehicle lowers the technician must secure the oil pan Drain Plug to a torque value of 26 nm (19 lb ft). Screw the proper engine oil quantity into the crankcase then remove the oil indicator before cleaning it with a fresh cloth for reinstallation. Check the oil level one more time after removing the oil level indicator and add oil as needed while inspecting for any signs of oil leakage.
