How do you change the oil and filter on a Citroen C3? Follow these steps for the replacement: open the car door and pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, then lift the bonnet and secure it. Using a socket wrench, unscrew the large securing bolt of the container cap (where the oil filter is located).

Remove the worn oil filter and position a new one. Lift the car on a jack and unscrew the bolt from the oil sump; allow the fluid to drain into a container.

Finally, top up with new fluid and close the bonnet.
