First time changing the oil in the GS, did not realize I purchased the wrong oil filter wrench from Amazon. Had to make a trip to Advance Auto, luckily they had it in stock. Drained about 6 qts out, so added 6. Will check oil level in the morning. Also installed Fumoto valve.

Oil never looks like that when it comes out....they need to update their packaging
Seriously though....did that install in such a way that you're not concerned about something somehow knocking it open? I have to admit, I haven't been under the car really so I don't know how the drain hole sits but I would be concerned about some sort of road debris knocking it open - although I see it seems to have a notch to help keep it closed. Other than that it seems like it would be a great idea.

My wife's CT200's oil looks like new when I do oil changes. That's the only car I've seen that clean doing oil changes. My GS isn't too dark....
I did a 2017 pathfinder yesterday, tar came out. I don't think they changed the oil in over 20k miles.

I am a little concerned, but not too much, it's certainly not the lowest point under there. Next change I will likely get a newer version, without the nipple.
Battery was dead today. I haven't used the car in about 5 days and its been sitting in below freezing temps. Jump started perfectly and working well within 2min after using my highly recommended JNC660. Anyone looking for a jumpstarter - look no further: :

One of my favorite things about this jumper, it will full charge if you leave it attached to the battery after starting.
The little pocket jump starters usually need to be plugged in the charge up.
