Thanks, I could have gotten it a few dollars cheaper, but Auto Shack was the closest parts store. Regardless, it's still a bit pricey for an oil filter seeing as how it's the same one.I paid $11.12 plus tax for this filter and O-Ring at the dealer. He said it was the same filter as earlier Pentastar engines (since 2014). I haven't tried installing it though.
Makes sense. At that price, I can buy a couple and don't have to worry about not having one when I need it.I just checked RockAuto and they sell 2017 Pacifca oil filters (including o-ring) for about 4 bucks each.
You made my day, Tsuter! I've never seen that type of oil filter cover. Too easy! Extracting oil from the top, I should be able to do an oil change in under 5 minutes I think. :grin2:The filter is up top on the left side of the engine cover. It's a black plastic housing with what looks like a black plastic bolt head molded into it. It's 24mm and has a torque spec listed on it on 25nm.
