Packed up a few goodies and headed to a friends ...............


(not pictured, cabin air filter)

Progress Sway Bar, Mobil syntec and K & N cartridge oil filter, K & N air filter, and factory replacement cabin filter.

First stop was the local gas station, where Dory got 14 gals of the GOOD STUFF.

Total time in and out of garage, from setting up the ramps to final clean up, less than 1 hour.

No probs backing on to ramps



Sway bar installed w/ no probs



Turned the car around to do oil change. (no pics)

Next was the filter change



And finally the cabin filter



All in all, Dory had a great day!!

 

wow how many miles were on that cabin filter?

 

I believe about 9K. Didn't check the mileage last change, but it was about 1 month after the last oil change.

 

that makes me wanna go check mine, is that something you can pick up at autozone or is it a gm only filter? if thats around 9k i hate to see mine at 18k

 

I splurged and got the Delphi from the dealer for $37.00

 

The cabin filter is one of the few things that is best to get from the dealer (you can sometimes find them much cheaper on eBay).

I bought one from NAPA and the sides are so flimsy the filter collapsed on itself while installing it.

 

thanks for the heads up

 

Wow, Dohrry is breathing better today!! Looks like it coughed up a lung - thanks for the photo journal and I haven't done ANY of that. Very helpful!! Sway bar - - for cornering better??

 

Here's what I first saw when I opened the filter door......



And as it came out



Yes, as well as helping buffer the crosswind on highway trips.

 

Glad She can breath better. I change mine now with every oil change at 5000 miles. Old habits die hard.
