How to Change the Engine Oil and Filter in a Chevrolet Trax

Model: Chevrolet Trax MK 1 - Years 2013-2022
Part: Engine oil

To replace the engine oil and filter on a first-generation Chevrolet Trax, bring the engine to its normal operating temperature, then switch it off and safely raise the vehicle. Place a container under the oil sump and remove the drain plug to allow the complete drainage of the used lubricant. Next, unscrew the oil filter and replace it with a new one, having lubricated the seal with a small amount of clean oil. Once the drain plug is refitted, fill the engine with oil of the grade recommended by the manufacturer. Finally, start the engine for a few moments, check for leaks, and check the oil level with the dipstick, adding oil if necessary.
