⚠️ Important: Always warm up the engine for 2–3 minutes before draining oil. Dispose of used oil at a certified recycling center.

Step-by-Step Procedure
-
1Warm the engine for 2–3 minutes, then shut it off and let it cool slightly (5 minutes).
-
2Place the oil drain pan under the engine drain plug.
-
3Remove the drain plug with the correct socket. Allow oil to drain completely (5–10 minutes).
-
4Remove the old oil filter using the oil filter wrench. Have a rag ready — residual oil will spill.
-
5Install the new oil filter: lightly oil the gasket, thread by hand until snug, then turn 3/4 additional turn.
-
6Replace the drain plug with a new washer. Torque to manufacturer spec (usually 18–30 Nm).
-
7Add the correct amount of fresh oil (per owner's manual spec — typically 10W-40 or 10W-30).
-
8Start the engine and let it idle for 1–2 minutes. Check the oil pressure light goes off.
-
9Inspect for leaks around the drain plug and filter.
-
10Check the oil level via dipstick or sight glass. Add oil if needed to reach the upper mark.
