Oil Change Socket July 30, 2009 John M. Ryan 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Searched Amazon.com for an oil filter for my HHR and found one for a very reasonable price and shipping arrangement as well along with this special socket..
Yes I would duplicate this order again.
The price beat all local prices on this item and all Internet Prices I searched so needless to say I made the purchase along with a few other items needed and related. The free shipping was included with the purchase of these additional items and this review will be cut and pasted to those items as they are reviewed along with one added piece of information on the special socket for the oil cap removal review.
This socket is made in the USA and designed especially for removing the oil filter cap on HHR Chevrolet 2.2 and 2.4 Ecotec 4 Cylinder engines and probably will work on many other applications as the same engine is used in Saturns and Cobalts as well as other General Motors Vehicles too.
It is necessary to clear the Intake Manifold and be able to fit the hex nut on the plastic top of the Oil Filter Housing Cap.
It is 3/8" drive and steel and will last a lifetime as it never touches metal during its use and is worth its weight in Gold when trying to do the job without it. Regular sockets don't fit on the HHR and there is no room for large wrenches which have to be 1 1/4" to fit the cap nut so often pliers are substituted and this can crack the plastic nut or cut it or even break it because pressure has to be applied to the pliers in order for it to grip the cap.
Do yourself a favor if you plan to service your own HHR etc. buy this socket and save time and accidents and possibly even engine damage due to oil leaks from a cracked oil filter housing cap.
This socket and a long 3/8" drive extension and a ratchet will be all you need for the filter removal and you won't be sorry you bought it, I know I am not.
As noted on the socket it is not meant for use with and impact wrench, hand wrench use only which is most commonly what you would be doing anyway in the first place for this procedure.
Great For Cobalts! September 5, 2009 Steven E. Mack (Seattle, WA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have a 2008 Chevy Cobalt and getting to the oil filter was a PITA. With this filter wrench I'm able to access and filter and not have to worry about getting a wrench in the small area and possibly stripping the thread on the filter. VERY recommended for Ecotech/Cobalt owners!
Well worth the price June 18, 2008 Chris John Philhower (NJ) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just purchased this tool to change the oil on my 08 Malibu. Works great. And is ALOT Cheaper than buying from Snap-On.
Just What I Needed April 10, 2009 T. Corbett (Ohio) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a must have if you own an HHR and change your own oil. It will work for either the 2.2 or 2.4 engines. Not sure why GM doesn't just throw this little gem in the glove box. For the money, get two and give one to a friend.
Works like a charm June 15, 2009 D. Morgan (North Adams, MA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This oil filter wrench works perfect for my Chevy HHR. When I first bought the car I could not find a proper tool to take the oil filter cap off.
Then I found this wrench. Nothing more to say, other than it fits perfectly and does the job as advertised. It paid for itself the first time I used it with the money I saved vs. taking it to a shop to get the oil changed.
Because of how tight the space is (referring to the HHR) I would recommend getting a couple extensions for your ratchet. With two extension pieces my ratchet (and my hand) were above the engine itself when unscrewing the oil filter cap.
