Took about 4 1/2 hours start to finish with an oil change. Here is the whole process in 5 min.
Enjoy!

Thats the only way I know how. I know you can do it by putting it in the service position but i like having the extra room.

Next time after you remove the super long allan bumper bolts, set them aside until you get to the service lock carrier, take out one of the green torx bolts and insert the bumper bolt in its place, that way the carrier will sit on that long bolt so you can pull it forward as far as the radiator hoses will let you. Now you don't have to drain the coolant or remove anything else on the carrier, should cut your time down to 2 hours, less with power tools.

Nothing like doing a 8 hour job in 1/4 the time and still charging for all 8 huh? I still havent got to do one yet. My engine was done when i was going to do mine since i was at 100k miles and had no idea if it was done. Then i was going to do my brothers and his waterpump went out right after i moved to FL. I guess that could be seen as a good thing
