Follow these steps carefully
Park the 2018-2024 Volkswagen Atlas on level ground, set the parking brake, and warm the engine 2–3 minutes so oil flows. Gather oil, filter, washer, and tools. Informational DIY — EZ Car Fix is not a shop.
If needed, jack the 2018-2024 Volkswagen Atlas at factory points and support with jack stands (or use ramps). Never work under a vehicle held only by a jack.
Place the drain pan under the 2018-2024 Volkswagen Atlas oil pan, remove the drain plug, and let the oil drain fully. Inspect the plug threads and replace the crush washer.
Remove the old filter on the 2018-2024 Volkswagen Atlas, lightly oil the new filter gasket, and install hand-tight only. Do not use a wrench to finish the filter.
Reinstall the drain plug on the 2018-2024 Volkswagen Atlas and torque to spec (~25 ft-lbs / check manual). Lower the vehicle, then add the correct oil type/amount through the fill cap using a funnel.
Start the 2018-2024 Volkswagen Atlas, check for leaks under the engine, verify oil level on the dipstick/electronic gauge, and reset the oil-life monitor per the owner’s manual.
Test your repair before closing everything up. If something doesn't work right, double-check your steps.
