15:26 another hour of work skipped in putting back on the wheel splash guards and under engine splash guards.

15:00 I appreciate the detail on how to remedy an overfill situation, but you didn't tell us how you accomplished a siphon. From the lack of detail you gave I can only assume you did it the old school way and started the siphon by sucking on the siphon tube with your mouth. Obviously that's not the right way to do this. Some sort of vacuum pump is needed. I know there are hand pumps designed to suck all the oil out of the car from the top so that you don't have to get under a car to change the oil. One of those would work. Also there are inexpensive siphon kits available at convenience stores that have a little red bellows you can squeeze by hand to pump.

14:18 Way too much time spent to fill exactly to the fill line. You know the car takes 9 quarts. You know that it's 1 quart from the "min" line to the "max." You were already more careful than needed to start at 8 quarts, but if you want to start there, once you saw you were at "min" you should have simply added 1 more quart and been done with it.

6:52 Method to remove the broken remnants of the oil filter skipped.

One hour's work skipped between ar 8:30 (removing the splash guards and lower splash sheilds). Fail.

4:20 That is not a 27 mm socket.

I have a 2014 masirati ghibli runs perfectly except when I stop to an idle then I get a surge idle. What could be the problem smoke test negative complete tune up. Including coils ?

Ebay has best price for this pan/filter

Yo James, Congrats Brother! Thanks to you, I am sure mine will last or do just as well. Thanks for paving the way!

I have a ghibli gran lusso & my warranty expires in few months not sure if I should pay to renew warranty? It’s very expensive to renew!

Great video good detail!

I just purchased a 2017 and this definitely puts my mind at ease! I honestly wasn't sure how long I'd hold on to my new purchase, but this definitely makes me feel like I can go for years with this car as my daily driver! Thanks, James!

Hello James, I have a 2019 MASERATI GHIBLI and it seems that the current tools on the market will only work up to 2018 model year for resetting the oil service. Do you have more information on this?

Why only another 100K, why not 400K? Some luxury cars like Lincoln and Cadillac can easily last 500K

Congratulations 🇮🇹👌🏻

Thanks, this was really helpful.

How many miles do you avg a year? I am around 102k right now and would love to stay similar to your milage. My father is helping me with a water pump and thermostat on it this weekend any advice from you would be great. I checked out your thermostat video. It would be cool to take the journey with you. His name is James too by the way!! Great videos James, I appreciate how informative your channel has been.

Very useful

My driver side light does not come own but will blink for turning. My passenger side blinker quit working. Is there an easy solution?

Fantastic. I'm on 50K and hope to match it......A long time from now.

Absolutely love your Maserati 💙

100k?!?! My lexus ES has 240k. Whats so special about 100k?

My ‘15 SQ4 just hit 77k.. I keep getting camshaft sensor code so I replaced all 4 sensors, now I keep getting crankshaft position sensor code. Can’t find any info online for Crank Sensor. Any ideas? Thanks!

NICEE!!!

Well done James. I watched your videos as well. Just gone over 90k on mine. I have done full service on mine couple of months ago. Thanks again sharing your knowledge with us. All the best mate. Keep it up. Induja from UK

Maserati Quattro Porte, Ghibli and Levante cars became incredibly reliable from 2013 onwards, but you should not leave them parked. You should use them a lot because when you park luxury cars, advanced devices such as sensors and other things fail.

I own a Maserati Levante Trofeo and use it 2-3 times a day. Thank God, today it has traveled more than 140 miles and it is in very good condition due to its good maintenance.

Is this a good car to buy ? Yes no….. ?

75k on mine. I watch your videos to do the maintenance. Thank you!

that's awsome and great to know! proof that tender loving care goes a long way! Looking forward to seeing you do another upload when you hit 200k. Thanks

Congrats!

Thanks for the educational video. I'm looking to get one soon. Although I am considering an Alfa Romeo Guilia as well. Better gas mileage.

That's good news.maybe my levante will run a little longer as well..I'm afraid 2 drive it more than 1 day a week

What’s the resale value of 100k mile Maserati?

Amazing🎉

I don’t think you did it right. I did suction method and pulled out 9.5 quarts! You need to use a hard plastic line. And insert it the exact length of the dip stick so the tubes ending is at the very bottom of the pan. Then I dump a half quart into the motor then suck that out also. Make sure you run the motor for 10 mins prior to extraction so the oil is mixed up also.

Thank you James for this videos!

Thanks for the videos. I bought my Ghibli last year. 2014 model in excellent condition. Well kept. Your video helped me with oil change. Now onto the plugs. Do you still have your Ghibli?

Hey james i have an 2017 maserati ghibli sq4 I’m currently not where it is at the car has 98k miles always run really good but my girlfriend was driving it with really bad 02 sensors all 4 was bad and she was driving it for 30 mins and she parked the car and turned it back on and drove away all of a sudden the turbo charger gave code P0299 you think it will be a boost leak or it could be an bad catalytic converter that is stopping it from developing boost the car makes no wierd noise and no smoke comes out the exhaust please help

My 2014 Maserati Ghibli headlights are out. Do I need to take the bumper out to replace them?

dont know anyone in the right mind who would own a maserati for 6 years but good on you. you achieved something. just not sure what 🤣

hello I just changed the transfer case oil 75w90 Mobile I just realized that I was wrong. I have driven 600km, I am going to replace it with the atf TF0870, do you think I damaged the transfer case? I await your return thank you

Ty for all the tips provided on your channel. Appears to be jerks now showing up in the comments but im sure almost all of your viewers appreciate you. Thanks James!

Do you understand the damage you can do by not setting a modern spark plug to the correct torque? DIY sure

So which one would be the camshaft position sensor ?

Great videos, great car! You should make more videos, something like driving POV videos, etc.

Hello James. I'm having the P0017 problem with my 14' Maserati Ghibli S, and also have problems when starting up the car after putting gas. Do you know what it can be? Thank you.

Hello James brother my Maserati ghibli ran out of gas now it’s stalling out and running really bad p2180 p2178 p302e

30!
