FD, thanks so much for this write-up. I did order the kit from Tischer (got the kit a couple of weeks ago), and I did the oil change a little while ago. It is a super easy oil change with your directions. With a little more experience, I don't see this taking more than 20 minutes or so. I have a 12qt oil catcher which worked well. I'll need to find an oil drop-off place. The drain plug wasn't too difficult to remove (reinstalled at about 28nm), and neither was the filter cover (reinstalled at 25nm). I did put in the full 8 quarts and ran an errand and both the computer & dipstick read full. The engine also feels a little smoother after the change, and seems to rev/accelerate a little better (could be all in my mind, but she does have fresh blood now). Thanks again for the superb write-up.
