CAN AM X3 OIL CHANGE 

I found the easiest way to change the oil in an X3, is park it in the middle of a field, drain the oil, change the filter, put everything back together, & refill it. Phase 2, spray the skid plate down with purple power & pressure wash all the mess off. Clean as a whistle!

I have 2, of these x3’ Curtis valves makes a great system for the oil changes on the x3’ and rzrs. For what its worth. They specialize in aircraft drains, there are two numbers for the x3’ and amazon has a funnel made to fit the oblong hole in the skid plate.

Best ever is the Curtis Valve for x3

Great video. Easiest way I’ve found is to buy a form-a-funnel. You can mold it like a ramp to the plugs and drain the oil to the side of the car. Not 1 drop of oil on the skid plate. Clean up any residue with pj1 contact cleaner and you’re done.

I would've like to see where you let the oil out bs just seeing where you placed the pink wide open funnel

I noticed after you jacked it yp you didn't leave the jack under it. After you finish changing the oil, did you just drive off then the vehicle would just set back to its normal spread?

What size tool do you use? That would have been helpful in the video.

You need to check out the silicone funnel on amazon for the X3 its the same size as the hole opening so you can feed your tools threw it makes it 10 times easier. Best 20 bucks you will spend collapsible so its easy peesy getting it in and out.

Cool video.

Can you cut a bigger hole in the skid plate to make it easier?

Hell yeah

Good vid. You'll be catching me in miles if I don't ride soon. haha

Anyway have a good suggestion on the “break in” fluid changes?

You don’t have to do all that. Use a funnel with a hose on Amazon and someone made a custom 3D printed oil pan that redirects the oil down through the skid plate

Is that your winter set of wheels and tires?

You ought to try washing it before changing the oil.

Think imma take a hole saw to my skid plate next time
