- Warning: It is critical that the oil change duration does not exceed 15 minutes or you risk having no oil pressure on start up. This is due to the design of the variable output oil pump.
Torque Spec: Filter housing 25.5Nm, Sump plug 20-30 Nm
Dry Sump Capacity 9.7L
27mm socket

Ok, so if you messed up with time or oil pressure light comes on you need to do the following (copied from a website):
The following is an oil pump priming method for a MAZDA BT50 and Ford Ranger 3.2 Diesel.
Disconnect the battery to prevent you from starting the engine
Place an oil catchment bucket below the engine.
Remove the oil filter
Fill up the engine with 15 (Fifteen) liters of oil
Allow the engine to stand for a full day of 24 Hours
After 24 hours connect a portable compressor to the breather pipe situated on top of the engine.
Seal the air hose to the breather pipe securely.
You can seal the oil dipstick if you wish, but not 100% necessary.
Get an assistant to watch the open oil filter housing for oil coming through
Start pressurizing the system by forcing air through the breather pipe slowly
Do not exceed 0.6 bar of pressure if possible. (High pressure can damage or unsettle any seals)
Low air pressure is enough since you simply want to induce a bit of pressure to push oil into the oil pickup tube
Watch the oil filter housing for any oil pushing through - this is an indicator that the oil pump is full and primed.
Refit oil filter
Reconnect the battery
Crank the engine in short 10-second intervals
Leave the oil cap off and observe the oil pushing up over the hydraulic lifters
Secure oil filter and cap
DO NOT REV THE ENGINE!
DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE!
Drain the engine of the excess oil.
Ensure you do not exceed 10 minutes
Close the sump screw with a new sump washer
Check that the oil pressure light is off (allow 5 seconds)
Remove the oil cap to ensure oil is flowing over the hydraulic lifters
Awesome information THANKS. comment pinned to the top
Done as indicated, great information !!!
After about 20 hours of having filled with 15 liters of oil, it went up to the filter housing without the need for additional pressure.
Good info Gman Cheers !
I have done dozens of these but every one of them my heart breaths a sigh of relief when I see that oil light go out !
Thank you! Great video, not too long and straight to the point. No video wobbles and good audio overdub with instructions. Like all things, it looks so easy when you know what you're doing.
thanks mate
This engine is a passion for me, great torque and a even better sound
Love how detailed your instructions are - that's my goal as well, so there are no questions left. Very good DIY! Also, that funnel is huge! :)
thanks mate
That's what she said😂
Thank you for making this, made my oil change a breeze. It's a quick job if you have everything ready to go.
Thanks for this video. I did the oil and filter on mine today after watching this a couple of times. Having everything ready I was able to do the oil and filter in under 8 minutes.
Champion effort, well done and thanks for the comment.
Russell Houchin some one had mentioned that it was difficult to change the oil and that you had to remove the tire to get to the filter I’m thinking about getting one myself and that comment had put the ranger out of my mind cuz of that
Russell Houchin but you only have to
Turn the wheel thanks for the vid
Ive bookmarked your video on this ,i told a mate about the time limit and he doesnt believe it so im going to show him this video . i came across this when reading about a couple who were caravaning and they found out the hard way .
Show him this too www.aaen.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/AUTODATAtiqbiz.pdf
great video ...This help me prep everything prior and then did complete change in 6 mins flat ...from start to finish with engine running
Man this has just made me feel confident in doing mine. Especially mechanics want to charge 3 to 400 just to do the oil filter and oil. Im doing mine this weekend and will save over 200 bucks. Absolute legend thanks for the video.
Great video! We didn't have the diesel option on the Rangers over here in the US. Very well done video and audio quality! :)
thanks for the comment and checking out my video.
Thanks for the BT 50 oil change feature. Very well done👍
Glad to help. Thanks for the comment.
Great video , thanks
I wish I've come across your video before I've changed my oil& oil filter because I didn't know about time limit !
But I was lucky I didn't had any problem so far it's running well , cross my fingers !
Thanks again
Just saw you comment now, sorry for the delay. Thanks for the comment. Cheers.
I remember someone at work telling me about this with their Ranger, couldn't believe it. Just thought about it randomly tonight and looked it up. Wow.
As long as you are aware it's not a problem. Just work fast. Cheers
This is the great tutorial video about oil change on ranger. Thank you sir! From malaysia.
jack johnson Be sure to check out my video on the cabin filter and fuel filter change as well
The best Ranger advice and oil change instructions. Saves a seized 3.2 for sure.
Craig Williams thanks mate
Best, how to for a Ranger oil change. You removed the "fear" factor of doing it myself. A totally differnt mindset needed for the Ranger compared to my ZD30 Patrol. Thanks👍
Glad it helped
Totally random, but i had a ZD30 patrol before my Ranger aswell!
@@SlaterGator
Did you guys like your Patrols after buying the Ranger? I’m kind of considering as one of my options going from a 120 petrol Prado to a ZD30 patrol, but I’m aware those Patrols are old school and have gutless engines. Just after the thoughts from people who owned them as previous 4wds.
@@cliffbooth7075 My Patrol went everywhere and did everything I could've asked for. But yea the ZD30 is completely gutless compared to the 3.2 Ranger. You could look into the Ford Everest 3.2 Titanium. Thats similar to a prado..
Thanks a million, everytime I change oil on my bt50 thanks you🙏🙏
no problem
Thank you for much needed info !
If you want to avoid the messy oil filter situation, just loose the oil filter a bit then drain the sump, as the oil drains out slowly unscrew the oil filter and most of the oil will drain down. Now you can remove the oil filter without any mess ;)
Hey, Thanks for the comment. I will look into your method. Cheers
I agree. Always a little silly to remove filter before draining sump.
@@rollingredknuckles you do this so that the oil doesn't drain as quickly.. it kinda buys you some breathing time
I heard about this a while ago and glad i stumbled on your vid as some peps didnt believe me
I image it will catch plenty of owners out in the future who will be unaware. Thanks for the comment and spread the word.
Thanks brother I appreciate all your videos. Super helpful. I replaced the lead frame up in the trans and did an oil change this weekend.
Done my first service myself today since warranty period ended thank you very much for this info made it so much easier
Nice work!
Great vid mate, out of warranty period soon so going to start servicing myself. Cheers!
Cheers glad it helped.
The dealers hardly change your oil in the warranty period. I know mechanics that work at dealerships unfortunately.
One thing he didn't mention is that when you change the oil, just do that task from start to finish. I've heard of a mechanic dropping the oil, then changing the fuel filter while it drained. A fuel filter clip was lost for a considerable time preventing a "start up" to prime the oil pump. Apparently, the procedure is to put 15 litres of oil in the sump, leave over night, then drain 5 litres of oil from the sump before attempting to start the engine.
Good advice, just one thing at a time when it comes to these. I too have heard that overfilling the sump can prime the pump with oil. Definitely would try it if I was caught out!!
Thanks' for such an informative video you have made it look so easy to do.
thanks for watching and the comment.
Sometimes the internal portion of the filter housing comes out with the filter. This may need to be clipped back into filter housing.
It is essential for blocking one end of filter so the oil goes through the filter.
thanks for sharing this tip
Very good video, detailed and clear.
Thank you
thanks mate
Excellent video clear as crystal
Thanks, glad it was of help.
Excellent explanation, well done!
Thanks for the comment.
Thanks mate! The only thing I'd add is the size of the oil filter socket - which is 27mm
Awesome thanks.
excellent video
Mate use this vid today on my 15 px ranger thanks for the site
Just saw you comment now, sorry for the delay. Thanks for the comment.
Great video, well done and thank you for posting
cheers, hope it can help you out
good video, great camera work and explanations, cheers
Many thanks!
Never heard of this on any vehicle before, thanks for upload, and great vid!, not sure if I will buy a vehicle with this engine!
It's not an issue if you know about it. Thanks for the comment.
Rover V8 engine had similar issues ! If it wouldn’t prime you had to remove the sump and pack the oil pump with petroleum jelly.
@@AJ-qn6gd dropping the sump on one of these would be a real pain.
I like those big funnels. I have a big one like that, but it’s a different shape and it’s also the same color too.
I love 'em too. Thanks for the comment
A very clear and well done video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks
Legend mate! Subbed.
Champion!!
Mate thanks a bunch for this advice, brilliant vdo
No problem, thanks for the comment.
Some things that make it faster for changing the oil if you have a 2 post hoist is to take the car up halfway take only 2 of the scrivets out open the filter housing with a rag inbetween the filter housing and chassis rail to reduce spillage and lift the car up all the way drain the oil and when you bring the car back down replace the filter
(That’s the most efficient way if you are working on more than one a day
Awesome thanks for the tip and the comment.
Great camera work and very informative. Any vids on install of oil catch can or extra diesel filter?
Just fitted a Catch Can last week and I did record the process. Should have it up in the next week or so. Be sure to sub and hit the notifications bell.
I remember when the first t6 ranger was launch, alot of people doing their own service damage the engine because theyve waited way too long to drain the oil to remove all the old oil out. Maybe if we can crank the engine without actually starting it, we can even lessen the chance of oil starvation since the new oil filter will be filled with new oil before the engine runs.
Yes you could, I typically do this with rebuilt engines or major disassemblies. All the oil galleries etc. would still have oil in the on the most part and its a step that would cause too much grief to the average oil changer but I like your thinking. Cheers
Only 2 things I'd do differently is to clean out the filter housing lid and to lubricate the seal for the lid as when putting in dry can bind up making it a nightmare who ever has to do it next, being the lids are only plastic the seals bind up that bad that when pressure is put on the top to remove it it can physically crack the lid and there not cheap!. Always replace the sump plug washer as well. Other then that spot on ! I do it the same way also
Hi, just watched and serviced a 2019 3.2 Ranger for the first time (this was its first service also) Completed the service in under 10 minutes (had it stop watched) and to my horror the LOW OIL PRESSURE warning came on!! Removed the oil filter and it was bone dry! not a drip of oil, confirming that the oil pump definitely drained itself and could no re-prime.
Found another video explaining that they have changed the oil in x2 Rangers before in 5minutes (oil only no filter) and the LOW PRESSURE WARNING comes on. Seems to be that this 10minute time frame is bullshit from FORD/MAZDA.
Would love to know if anyone else has experienced this or heard of this problem, especially if you work in a dealership.
CHEERS. And a great video.
Firstly, I hope you have now primed the pump and have oil pressure!
I have heard accounts of people taking 30mins+ and having no issues which adds confusion to this problem. I have had a number of oil samples tested from these engines and about 1/4 had elevated levels of diesel contamination and have very low viscosity. I believe this is causing the oil pump drainback problem. Would like to hear of others thoughts.......
@@killawattgarage happened to me exactly same as above i had to hand pump oil into the pump at the filter housing screwed it back on and bingo, but im shit scared for next time, the oil was hot old and very thin so i think it drained really fast and the viscosity thing is a major factor
@@RegularBenHur glad you got it sorted. Sometimes the old oil comes out like water it is so thin.
I just did my ford 2016 ranger 3.2 lit change oil. Looks like I spent more than 15 minutes because I missed to re install the little part inside oil filter cap but I re filled the oil in less than 10 minutes. I opened again the oil filter, put that part on the center of the new filter and returned the cap. One click and it started without any warning lights on my dashboard.
@@killawattgarage So would it be better to change the oil + filter when the motor and oil are cold?
You know....I felt ashamed as I haven't changed my own oil in like 15 years...... -15 man points lol Great Video!
No shame in that, mate! In our area (Toronto, Canada) oil change costs around $30 (Canadian) for labour, if you bring your own oil and filter. I consider that to be more than reasonable for this type of work, if you don't want to spend that time and get dirty under the car and dispose of used oil, especially in harsh winter time.
Bringing your own oil and parts is frowned upon in Australia
Same here, in Canada. It's just I have good relationships with service guys at Acura dealer here, that's the only reason we have this arrangement. I buy parts from them only, but with a discount. This way they still have profit, and it's cheaper for me than to buy OEM online.
It's hard to tell after
if your oil filter is leaking from residual oil or not. Oil does drip down in some weird places
which you may have missed with the degreaser cleaning up
Yeah true, good tip
Very well edited!
That oil filter location seems pretty annoying.
thanks mate
Cars Simplified ss
Sure is a stupid location. Sam as the 2.2 engine.
GOOD
Very well described, thankyou
This is definitely an oil change where you need to be well organized with zero distraction. Sometimes you have to wonder with the auto engineers; whether they are just being dopey or whether the bean counters got involved with parts decisions? The oil filter seems ridiculously small considering the near 10L of oil required? This is a stress no one needs, i'd be shit scared to even take it to a dealer with 1st year apprentice kid changing my oil, you know how distracted they can get.
If you are a DIY'er or mechanic you have to hustle to get it done. And the filters are tiny while the service intervals are getting longer. As least it still has a dipstick many high end car makers are doing away with them!! Thanks for the comment.
thanks mate nice clear video!
Thanks for the comment.
Thanks. I changed my today.
Great job!
Very good Sir for your instructions .. many thanks
happy to help
Thanks mate always reference this
thanks, for the comment.
Thanks for this mate
Brilliant video mate. Clear, well presented, and you did a great job of emphasizing the 10min time limit. What are your thoughts on using engine oil flush prior to oil change?
I think once the km's starting getting higher or if you are unsure of service history then it's worthwhile. Liqui-Moly make great products and is my first go to for these things. I have used their diesel injector cleaner and can notice the improvement. Thanks for the comment.
ted waetford I reckon it would almost be mandatory on these engines, especially once they reach the 100,000km mark
Thanks for the detailed instructions, can you please tell us what is the size of the filter?
Great video thanks my friend keep up the great work see you in the next video
thanks mate
Thanks for the help. Now i can help other's as well.
No problem 👍
awesome engineering from ford
You have to to wonder what those engineers are thinking when they design this stuff?? Thanks for the comment.
Awesome video. Cost $400 NZD for an oil change these days for 8mins of work🤦♂️
Great point!
Just done mine and stamped my book today after owning it for 3 weeks, noticed it didnt have a sump guard on..... all done in 8 minutes though 🙂
Great work! Interesting that the sump guard is missing?? Thanks for the comment.
So does the 10 minutes start when you start draining the oil or when you start changing the filter. The problem as I understand it is that the pump cant self prime so you can't let it run dry, changing the filter does leak a bit of oil but is unlikely to empty the oil pump
Hi man when you doing more videos on these like the transmission fluid
great video!!!
Cheers, thanks for the comment.
Can you do a video on how to bleed the oil pump ? Etc.. when you take longer than 15mins to do service. Thank you
Thak you for sharing. Do you have a video how to remove the rear driveshaft to refil the grease?
Not yet, will add it to the list of video's to make.
An excellent video!
Cheers and thanks for the comment
thanks, very thorough. I did mine yesterday. Is it ok for the oil to go past the top of the cross hatch section?
The scary part is that my local ford dealer has never heard of this,.. and they do this all the time.. but i'm gonna change engine oil myself, and i'm gonna be quick about it.
It's now becoming a well known fact, but to hear that ford dealers are unaware is very scary. I guess to it depends if you are speaking with the 'Service Agent' or the mechanic as to their knowledge. Thanks for the comment.
It's in the owners manual so your dealer isn't very bright. Change dealerships
Great vid man. The intructions were very clear.
What kind of oil you used for the ranger?
Ray Monterola it’s recommend to use 5W -30. I used full synthetic Penrite.
Best video ever thanks so much .can you make ah fuel filter video .
Done!!
czcams.com/video/0z74QNkkqyk/video.html
Hey mate, if it isn’t done in the timeframe and the pump doesn’t self prime what’s the next steps?
Can you load the filter up with oil to help it prime? Or can you manually prime it?
Mate great video no B.S { Liked }and enjoyed
Hi mate great video. Very helpful! Just wondering. One question, you sound very knowledgeable, how do you locate the glow plugs on this engine?
You cant see much of a fitted glow plug. Under the plastic engine cover on the side of the cylinder head you should be able to see them from the heavy duty electrical connectors joining the 5 glow plugs together. Once the connection is removed then the the outer tip of the glow plug will be visible. Hope this gives you a guide. Let me know if you cant see 'em.
Thanks Sharing Mate👍🏾👍🏾
No problem 👍
Why not change the flush/ remove the oil first before before changing the oil filter?
Thanks for the knowledge, I can confidently do this myself now. What would be involved to drain and replace the power steering fluid on the PX Ranger? Is it possible to do a video on this one day?
Will add it the list and film it if I get the chance. Typically (with the engine off) you would disconnect the low pressure return hose and lower it to drain the old fluid. Turn the steering left to right will also move the old fluid out. Reconnect the hose and fill up with fresh fluid. With the car running It will be filled with lots of air and you will need to turn left to right a number of times to purge out the air. Hope this helps.
good day, do you a video on how to remove the front grill of 2016 everest?
Sugerencia, en el deposito del filtro de aceite queda bastante aceite quemado, puedes extraerlo con una geringa para que no contamime el aceite nuevo.
Translation - Suggestion, in the tank of the oil filter there is a lot of oil burned, you can extract it with a syringe so that it does not contaminate the new oil.
Yes you could try to remove the old/burnt oil but remember with this oil change there is not a lot of time.
Translation - Sí, podrías intentar eliminar el aceite viejo / quemado, pero recuerda que con este cambio de aceite no hay mucho tiempo. gracias por el comentario
An aftermarket self priming pump is available, but you loose the variable volume ( ?fuel saving) feature of the factory pump. Also installation of course requires sump removal, not an easy job on these engines, but maybe a good idea for a rebuild.
Definitely would change over during a rebuild and I would like to know how much of a fuel saving these pumps actually give as I have never seen the numbers. Thanks for the comment.
great video! any chance you can do a stock suspension installation? my suspension has gone bad and is leaking and i'm struggling to find a video regarding the replacement of stock suspensions on my ranger.
Thanks for the request. If I get the chance I will record it.
Hey mate, do you ever replace clutches on the ford rangers! I think If you ever did, there would be a huge demand for this type of video, especially a video showing the replacement of the Ford rangers/BT 50's sold to the Aus/NZ market! I reckon it'd get a ton of traffic! Great video by the way
If I get a chance to record it I will. cheers
You save me. Thank you so much
no problem
Unbelievable that the pump doesn't self-prime. I love new technology, but newer cars are utter piles of shit with some of the worst engineering the world has seen- across the board. No country is exempt.
Agreed! Thanks for the comment.
Can confirm. My new transit custom has been back to Fords 5 times so far with faults. Will defo be getting rid of it before the warranty is up!
Hello. Please post also video on how to clean EGR, throttle body on Ford ranger. Thanks
Will add it the to list
First time, 8:35. Thanks for the vid.
Awesome. Champion Effort!!
Best to have a whole filter unit ready. Then clean the old one for next service.
thanks for the comment
It looks so easy while u r working. I like your move and hope u will upload the next clip soon. Than a lot.
Plan it out and have everything ready and its easy.
Good video I’ve already took off the filter not drained the oil out of sump been more than 10 minutes am i in trouble
I wonder how to re prime the system of u have stuffed up the oil change that would be an interesting topic
you can overfill the oil then drain excess after starting or hand pump oil into the oil pump through the filter housing.
Hi can you do a video of automatic transmission fluid change of ford ranger/ everest? Thanks. :)
Sure thing here is the link. czcams.com/video/E_KxM4zD_hc/video.html
I think we all know Toyota know how to make a reliable engine but they also help themselves by making oil and filter changes really easy.
You are more likely to change your own oil and filter if it is a painless task.
Couldn't agree more.
If you got spare time, would it be possible that you’ll make a video on how to replace the airbags on the steering wheel? I find it difficult to release the horn button where the airbag housing is located. 2016 everest 3.2.
I will have a look.
Excellent video..did you jack the van up ?
Are you able to do a vid. for the Px ranger 2.2lt 4x4. Would be most helpful. cheers.
Sorry just saw your comment now. Will add it to the list.
The whole process does not have to be done in 10 minutes . Take as long as you like to change the filter , it's the time taken to drain and replace the oil in sump that needs to be done in 10 minutes .
My understanding is that once the filter is opened to the atmosphere oil is free to run back through the oil galleries and potentially drain the pump. I have yet to tear down one of these engine and fully investigate the possible drain back situation so I like to lean on the side of caution and still aim for 10 minutes total time. I have heard stories of people draining all night and having no issues and others doing the process in under 10 and having no oil pressure on start up. Happy to hear other stories.
@@killawattgarage the oil pump I imagine is submerged in oil until the sump is drained then you have 10 minutes to refill and submerge the pump in new oil .
@@deanwitt7903 I have had a good look at the pump location on exploded engine diagrams buts its hard to tell if the pump is fully or partially submerged. If definitely has a pickup tube.
3²3
How many liters to use in 3.2 engine.. thanks for your video very informative.. greetings from Philiipines
Thanks
the 10 minutes starts when you drain the oil, you can take as long as you want changing the filter if you do it before draining the oil
