Not recommended. Used to be common to change oil and not the filter. Supposedly the filter would be good for 6,000 miles while the oil was to be changed at 3,000 miles. Changing only the oil filter doesn't replace the additives in the oil that get broken down over the 3,000 miles.

YES! Never change the oil without changing the filter. Not changing the filter will save you what, 5 bucks. Replacing the engine that you will blow in the process will cost, maybe $800 to $1200. Do the math then go out and CHANGE THE FILTER. Put an air filter in it while you are at it.

Is it possible to change an oil filter without changing the oil?
ANS1Yes, but this is not recommended. You will lose some oil in the process of changing the filter, so check your oil before you start the engine and add what is needed.ANS2I suggest that you always change the filter before you change the oil. Change the filter with the oil still in the crankcase, that way if the new filter doesn't fit you can put the old filter back on and drive back to the parts store to exchange the filter for the right one. If you change your oil first, the new oil will be contaminated by the old oil in the filter if you have to put it back on to drive the car to get the right filter.As Ans1 says, it is not recommended to change the filter without changing the oil. You are changing the oil, not because the oil is dirty, but because it is chemically changed by use and will not properly protect your engine.
