• Q: How to Change an Oil Filter and Safely Dispose of Used Oil on 2007 Dodge Caravan?

  A: Change the engine oil when the vehicle reaches the intervals described in the Maintenance Schedule. Because engine oil, whether new or used, irritates the skin, try to avoid long or frequent exposure. Used oil from an engine may have harmful impurities because of internal combustion; if some of this oil comes in contact with your body, wash the skin off right away using soap and water. Ask your dealer or the local government for the closest center to remove used engine oil. Preheat the engine by running it until temperature is normal and then pull over and switch off the engine. Open the oil fill cap, place the vehicle on safety stands and situate a drain pan underneath the place where crankcase oil is drained. Take out the drain plug from the crankcase and let all the oil come out into the pan; if the threads on the drain plug are damaged, change the drain plug and gasket. Remove the oil filter and after that, add and turn the drain plug in the crankcase into place. Replace the oil filter, suspend the car properly and fill the crankcase with the correct engine oil before putting in the cap. First, start the motor and look for leaks and then stop the motor after and monitor the oil level. Disposing of used engine oil should be done with care after you drain it from your vehicle.
