Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and the next time you need a part for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

In this video, we're going to show you how to change the oil in this 2004 Chrysler Sebring. The tools that you're going to need for this are jack and jack stands, 15mm socket, and rachet, oil filter wrench, oil, and a new oil filter.

Now right here is your oil pan, and you just want to remove this plug right here. You just want to get a drift pin and put it underneath it. Then loosen up that plug, pull it out, and let your oil drain. When it stops draining just replace that 13mm plug.

Now, using an oil filter wrench, just remove your oil filter. Once you get a certain distance, oil will start coming down. Let that drain out and then remove it the rest of the way.

Be sure to clean the area where your oil filter seals, coat the gasket of the oil filter with a little bit of fresh oil, and spin your oil filter into place. Generally you want to make it as tight as you can by hand which is usually about 3 quarters of a turn after it seated.

Make sure that your drain plug is tight and refill your crank case. Check your owner's manual to see how much oil your car takes and also just refill it until a dipstick's at its full. Run the engine a little bit, check it again, and refill it as necessary.
