Attention! Hot oil can cause burns. When unscrewing the drain plug, do not pull it out abruptly to avoid getting hot oil escaping under pressure on your fingers

Pic. 4.38. Drain plug location: 1 - oil pressure control sensor and ASSYST analyzer; 2 - drain plug
8. Remove the oil drain plug (pic. 4.38).
9. Drain the oil completely into a suitable container. If the vehicle was only jacked up from the front, lower it to drain the remaining oil. Draining will be accelerated by an open oil filler neck.
10. Clean and inspect the oil drain plug and sealing washer well.
11. After the oil has drained completely, screw the drain plug back in (if necessary, with a new sealing washer) and tighten it with a tightening torque of 25 Nm.
12. Lower the car.
13. Insert the new filter into the housing.
14. Screw on the cover with a new gasket and tighten it.

15. Fill with oil (pic. 4.39).
16. Start the engine for a short time until the emergency oil pressure lamp goes out - this means that the oil has filled the filter and has gone through the line.
17. Stop the engine and wait 5 minutes until the oil drains into the crankcase.
18. Check the oil level.
19. Check if oil is leaking from under the filter or from under the drain plug.
20. Replace the crankcase protection.
