GM has finally defeated me in my quest to change my own oil. Should be easy - a13mm socket, a wrench filter, a drain pan. Maybe a socket extension.
The vehicle in question - a 2007 GMC Acadia. Between me and the drain plug, a support for the exhaust pipe that could have been moved UP 5mm; and a chassis cross member that wouldn't have been too bad except for the exhaust support. I know they use CAD, they should check for this kind of stuff.
Better sell it before it needs new spark plugs!
This weekend is Detroit Maker Fair at Henry Ford - going to help the Frog Force, Novi FLL teams, and show off some of my stuff as well. Should be fun!
