6. Wiggle the oil cap out. You don't need to remove the intake tube in order to get it clear; simply slide it toward the right near the coolant surge tank and press down on the coolant hose marked below, and it will clear. If you have an aftermarket intake, you'll probably need to take the intake tube off.
7. Got your oil and filter ready? Obligatory AMSOIL promo shot.
8. Hopefully, the filter you ordered came with a replacement seal. I've found the easiest way to replace them is to grab the seal and push the sides in with two fingers, causing the seal to buckle, at which point it's easy to grab and slide off.
9. Place the new seal on the ridge marked below. This is important!
10. Install the end of the new filter with the tabs into the filter cap.
11. Reinstall the oil filter and torque to 25 Nm.
12. Reinstall the purge valve solenoid wiring connector.
13. Reinstall the drain plug and torque to 26-27 Nm.
14. Reinstall the engine shield/pan and torque to 29.8 Nm. Set your torque wrench to zero for storage once you're done.
15. Fill the engine with 4 quarts (~3.8 liters) of oil.
16. Start engine, run for a few minutes, shut off, and check oil level.
17. To reset oil life monitor, place the car in "on" mode (without starting the engine). Within 10 seconds of starting the car, press the gas pedal three times, then turn the car off again.
