Hello

For the filter, it's from the top if you don't have room for your hand, move the hose without removing it using the 2 screws at each end

For the quantity of oil in the vehicle it is around 4.6l with 5w30 (manufacturer's recommendation) but I know that there are some who will prefer 5w40 or 10w40 depending on your use and region

Hello and thank you for your tutorial help. What liter of oil should be used for the Twingo 2 diesel DCI 1.5 please?

Good morning,

Where do you pass the oil filter? Because it's not possible from the top and from the bottom there is a hose that I can't move.

Thank you for your help,

Marie
