2. Make sure you have all the necessary tools to get started. You should have enough rags or old newspapers to clean up any spilled oil. It is better to change the oil before the engine has cooled down after work - the dirt in it is in suspension and flows well along with hot oil. However, be careful not to touch the exhaust pipe or other hot engine parts when working under the machine. Wear rubber gloves to avoid burns and skin irritation when handling used oil. Access to the underside of the vehicle is greatly improved if the vehicle can be raised on a lift, driven onto a flyover, or jacked up and placed on jack stands (see "Vehicle lifting and jacking up"). Regardless of which method of lifting the vehicle is used, make sure the vehicle is level or, if at an angle, the drain hole is located at the lowest point. Where necessary, remove the mudguards from underneath the vehicle.
3. Working in the engine compartment, determine the location of the oil filter housing in the left rear corner of the engine, behind the intake manifold.
4. Place a rag or tissue paper around the base of the cabinet to catch any spilled oil.
5. Where provided, remove retainer or screw (depending on what is applied) and remove the rubber gasket from the baffle at the rear of the engine compartment. This will improve access to the oil filter housing (see fig. 3.5).

6. On models with an oil drain pipe installed in the center of the oil pump cover, unscrew the pipe and remove it from the filter housing (see fig. 3.6). Where it is installed, remove the o-ring and destroy it - a new one will be required during installation.

7. Remove the two mounting nuts, then lift the oil filter cover (see fig. 3.7). Remove the o-ring and destroy it - a new one will be required upon installation.

8. Working from underneath the vehicle, loosen the sump drain plug about half a turn (see fig. 3.8). Position the oil receiver under the hole, and unscrew the plug completely. When unscrewing by hand on the last two threads, if possible, try to press the plug against the pallet (see Haynes advises).
When the plug is unscrewed from the hole, remove it quickly so that the jet of leaking oil enters the oil receiver, and not into your sleeve.

9. Remove the o-ring from the plug.
10. Wait a while for the old oil to drain out of the crankcase, bearing in mind that you may have to move the oil receiver so that the dripping trickle gets into it.
11. After all the old oil has been drained, wipe the plug with a clean rag. Replace sealing washer. Clean the area around the drain, then install and tighten the plug.
12. Remove the old oil and all tools from under the car, then lower the car to the ground (if required).
13. Lift the filter element using the handle provided (see fig. 3.13).

14. Wipe the oil filter housing and cover with a clean rag. Check for blockages in the oil return pipe (either alone or together with a lid) - you can blow through the small hole at the top of the tube and check the air exit from the base of the tube (see fig. 3.14). Clean the tube and, if necessary, blow it out with compressed air.

Warning: Protect your eyes when using compressed air.
15. Install a new O-ring on the oil filter housing cover (see figure 3.15).

16. Install a new filter element on the housing (with top handle), then install the cover and tighten the fastening nuts to the required torque.
17. Where provided, install a new O-ring on the oil return tube, then install the tube and torque to specification.
18. Remove the dipstick, then unscrew the oil filler cap on the cylinder head cover. Fill the required oil into the engine (see "Weekly checks"). To reduce oil loss, you can add oil in a thin stream or use a funnel. First, pour half the required amount of oil, then wait a few minutes for the oil to glass down to the sump. Continue adding oil in small increments until the level reaches the bottom mark on the dipstick. Then add oil to the required level of the upper mark on the dipstick. Insert the dipstick and close the oil filler cap.
19. Start the engine and warm it up for a few minutes, check for leaks around the oil filter housing and drain plug. Note that it may take a few seconds after starting the engine. to turn off the emergency oil pressure lamp.
