1. Gather the necessary materials. You will need:
* A new oil filter (check your owner's manual for the correct size)
* A new oil filter gasket (if applicable)
* Oil drain pan
* Funnel
* Wrench
* Rags
2. Prepare the vehicle. Park the vehicle on a level surface and turn off the engine. Allow the engine to cool down completely. Engage the parking brake and chock the wheels.
3. Locate the oil filter. The oil filter is located on the bottom of the engine, near the oil pan. It is a cylindrical-shaped object with a black cap.
4. Remove the oil filter cap. Use the wrench to loosen the oil filter cap and remove it. Be careful not to spill any oil.
5. Remove the old oil filter. Once the oil filter cap is removed, you can remove the old oil filter by hand. Be careful not to spill any oil.
6. Install the new oil filter gasket (if applicable). If your new oil filter comes with a new gasket, install it on the oil filter before installing the filter.
7. Install the new oil filter. Hand-tighten the new oil filter until it is snug. Do not overtighten the oil filter.
8. Replace the oil filter cap. Use the wrench to tighten the oil filter cap until it is snug.
9. Add new oil to the engine. Use the funnel to add new oil to the engine. Add the amount of oil specified in your owner's manual.
10. Check the oil level. Use the dipstick to check the oil level and make sure it is between the "full" and "add" marks.
11. Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. This will circulate the new oil throughout the engine.
12. Check for leaks. Look under the vehicle for any leaks. If you see any leaks, tighten the oil filter cap or drain plug until the leak stops.
That's it! You have now successfully changed the oil filter on your 2007 Dodge Sprinter 3500.
