Oil and filter change | How to drain oil and replace the filter
|
1- Use a deep steel baking tray inside a bigger plastic tray. The steel tray will receive the hot oil first.
|
2- Start unscrewing the oil change plug little by little until oil starts to spill into the trays.
|
3- Keep holding the plug with the tool when taking it out to avoid any contact with your hands and let the oil flow.
|
|
4- You may now open the oil refill cover, not before.
|
5- Inspect it and check for any creamy compound.
|
6- Locate your oil filter. It could be difficult to reach on some engines.
|
|
|
|
|
7- Unscrew it gently using the appropriate tool a 28 mm socket in this case.
|
8- Take out the old filter with its casing. This one aged 10,000 Km.
|
9- Look inside the oil filter base and check if anything is there.
|
|
10- Prepare the new filter supplied with its new seal and new rings for the plug as well.
|
11- Start first by fitting the new seal in its groove. Put some oil on it, fit the new filter cartridge and tighten gently without squeezing the rubber ring.
|
12- Replace the sump plug seal with a new one as a systematic measure. Do not use the same seal.
|
|
13- Tighten until you compress the seal and clean well the sump with a dry cloth.
|
14- Wrap the oil hole with a towel or old socks to avoid any oil spills around on your engine cover. Use the adequate oil and oil quantity. Check your vehicle's manual.
|
15- Empty the trays into the same oil bottles to measure how much is still left. A 1l consumption between changes is normal. Read more about low oil level symptoms...
