2006 Chrysler 300C SRT8 Oil Change

Continuing on with springtime maintenance before the weather gets really hot, I change the oil in my 2006 Chrysler 300C SRT8 and go for a short drive. I also…

Do you have any videos showing how to change emergency brake cables?

krugerblue says:

Beautiful car. They are becoming quite affordable, but I’m unable to get
one due to high taxes on big engines in my country.

Ron Madrigal says:

Man, excelente video. thanks

Jake White says:

just curious. will be doing a tour of this chrysler?

The8TrackChap says:

For newer cars, I think the high zinc is bad for the catalytic converter.

According the the special features of the Blues Brothers DVD/Blu-Ray It’s
true! They really filmed that @120MPH! As I type this over free WiFi at an
airport.

The filter is a Donaldson P169071 and will fit ’05 – ’06 models with the
5.7L or 6.1L V8’s. It may work on ’07 and possibly later, but Chrysler
changed the threads to metric at some point in which case, this filter will
not fit on those models. Good luck on your oil change. 🙂

You get the results back from the lab? Do share!

shadowrider460 says:

When you use Donaldson’s cross reference and search for a Fram PH8A for
example, it presents the P169071 as having the Synteq media. This filter is
far superior to most other filters and even their own standard filter for
this application, which is 99% efficient at 40 micron. I’m always in search
of the best automotive replacement parts both for repairs and maintenance
to ensure maximum performance and longevity. To date, I have not found a
better filter for this application than the P169071.

shadowrider460 says:

The filter is a Donaldson P169071 which uses their Synteq media (the same
media found in their Endurance line for heavy trucks). It is a Ford FL1A or
Fram PH8A equivalent. It’s the most efficient filter commercially
available, and the larger size further increases the filter area over the
standard filter size which is significantly shorter. The oil chosen (high
zinc), along with the filter, provide maximum robustness for the conditions
this engine may see on occasion.

What was that product # for that filter

lysippus says:

holy hemi, batman- a 180mph speedometer and a >6k rpm tach. i cannot wait
for the tour. that’s quite a machine you have there

speedjunkie66 says:

Nice car man

Daniel Connor says:

The P169071 doesn’t use Donaldsons Synteq media ..it uses full microglass
or microglass/cellulose blend media which gives it 99%@22 micron but their
P550318 may well use the Synteq stufff which is 99%@17 micron. There are
some chemically treated cellulose filters made by MANN for the VAG group
that are over 99%@9 micron…

Imagine if Elwood Blues had one of those!!!

36k on an ’06? You’re keeping yours in great shape. I have 76k on my ’06
and it’s all in city driving. Thanks for putting this out, I was tired of
taking mine to the dealer. Just had to get my thermostat replaced recently
in case you have the issue of your temp getting higher. Noticed when my
temp started jumping above 235 and getting into the red.

joserico935 says:

Thanks for the reply

Robert Simms says:

Can we get a link to where you got that filter?

Jason Swaby says:

Great video.. Just about to do the oil change in my ’07 Jeep SRT8.. Thanks.

shadowrider460 says:

I might be wrong about this because it’s been a while, but I heard from
somewhere that the speeds in that movie were real and not sped up by the
camera. So Ellwood was running a true 120mph under that subway bridge. Now,
I’ve run 120+ on a bridge that shall remain nameless, but there’s just
something awesome about a car as big as a ’74 Monaco barreling ass down the
road like it owned it!
