Well Fish I am happy for you that you have a truck that the oil filter is easier to change and has nice mirrors.


But for me the extra 10 minutes it may take to change my oil is a minor inconvenience and I think I proved with my post it's really not a big deal to change the oil on a 13-15 RAM.

I think you are being kind here with the ten minute extra. I have to disagree, I've changed the oil three times now on my 2014 Ram, and although I'm getting better at it, and yes I have done it the way you showed, thats nothing new when changing the oil on these new Rams. At best its still a pita .

So you removed the steel pipe at the top? It is easily a 10 minute job the way I did it.

"Nothing new" ?

Please show me where anyone has posted the way I did it. Everyone removes the hose down low and fight getting it re connected. Or they go thru the fender well and there is no way that is a easy job.

I don't think it is a big deal. But the simple reality is it takes as long to get to the filter as the others do to get the entire change completed. Nothing is perfect, but this is just the truth. It is a PITA relative to the other trucks.
