Did My First Oil Change...

Hey guys, first post here. I'm a Stuntman from NJ and I've had my Grenadier for about 6 weeks now.

I've only got 3000 miles on my Grenny but I have a 3500 mile trip coming up and wanted to get fresh oil in there before I left. Glad I did because the drain bolt could be loosened by hand. Before I put the socket on it, I just grabbed it to wipe it off and it loosened up on me. Wow. Could've been bad. Barely hand tight! Easy change other than that. The oil filter housing isn't in the most convenient location, but everything was easy enough.

After reading Singletracker's thread and watching his YouTube video I filled 7 liters / 7.4 quarts. Oil Reading came out "OK". All set. Easier than I though it would be.

Oh, I also noticed EVERY SINGLE Grenadier on the dealer lot that had its hood up had a weeping Power Steering cap. Mine was no different. Found a new O-Ring gasket from Agile Offroad and it hasn't leaked at all for the last thousand miles. Easy fix.

Pics...because everyone loves pics!

Nice work! I also have the mild weeping from the Power steering....Ill take a peek at the AO one! Hopefully I will get similar results!
 
The mental picture of a stunt man changing his oil could be a film franchise .BRW my power steering cap weeps too,
