Video tutorial

This video shows where the oil filter is located in the Alfa Romeo 159 and how to proceed if you need to replace it. The operation is very simple and should always be done alongside an oil change. As demonstrated, the filter is located in the central rear area of the engine, just in front of the windscreen.

To access and remove it, first take off the plastic cover, then unscrew the housing with a 36mm socket. Of course, you will need to drain the system through the designated hole at the bottom of the engine.
