Introduction
It is not necessary to change the oil with the engine hot, however, warm oil flows much better.
We work on flat ground, gloves and glasses recommended. I am doing this tutorial on a pit but the emptying can be done directly on the ground, access is sufficient.
-
-
remove the oil cap
-
and the gauge
-
This step creates a draft so that the oil can flow more easily.
-
-
-
unblock the drain plug using a 21mm wrench
-
This car has a protective sheet metal that I later removed but it is unlikely that yours is equipped with it. If it is, it is removed by unscrewing 2 screws in front (10mm wrench) and 2 nuts in the back (16mm wrench).
-
Place a tray under the crankcase and finish unscrewing the cap by hand.
-
Be careful not to burn yourself.
-
don't hesitate to wear gloves
-
don't hesitate to drop the oil pan plug into the pan, you can retrieve it later with a magnet
-
let the oil drain for at least 15 minutes
-
-
-
unblock the filter using a strap wrench or similar tool
-
make sure the tray is under the filter and unscrew by hand
-
remove the filter and empty most of its contents into the bin
-
-
-
We can compare the shape and diameter of the old filter and the new one but the reference is sufficient: I fitted a UFI 2329300 filter which is equivalent to the Purflux LS867B.
-
-
-
clean the area on the engine block with a rag
-
oil the gasket of the new filter
-
squeeze very hard by hand
-
-
-
clean the crankcase with a cloth
-
replace the copper gasket of the cap
-
screw the drain plug by hand then finish tightening with a 21mm wrench (moderate tightening, torque of 30N.m)
-
-
-
pour 3 liters of 10w40 oil using a funnel
-
check the level on the gauge: the bottom notch represents the minimum, the top notch the maximum (complete if necessary: we aim to be just below the maximum)
-
-
-
put the gauge back in place
-
tighten the filler cap
-
start and check for leaks
-
You can turn off the engine and top up the oil: the level will have dropped since the oil filter will have filled up. You will check the level one last time when the engine is cold.
-
-
-
press (and hold) the trip meter button
-
and turn on the ignition
-
wait until the countdown ends to release the button: the maintenance counter is reset (you can turn off the ignition after that)
-
-
-
The used oil and the filter will be taken to a recycling center or any other facility that can recycle it. This step is an integral part of the oil change.
