Tools needed:
a beer or two

Music to cover swearing

Socket and deep socket set (12-19mm)

Air lines

Sockets for said impact

oil filter and oil filter wrench

Time.

There's a reason those cars have the resale value of packing peanuts.

You are lucky it's the 2.5. If it was the 2.7 it would be junk.

this is still junk, It does it's own oil changes. this is the 8th starter and 4th alternator in 4 years, the transmission is on it's way out and I backed into it once.
