The video provided contains detailed instructions for replacing the engine oil and its corresponding filter in Citroen C3 vehicles. This guide is also valid for the Citroen C3 Picasso and other similar models.

First, remove the lower protection panel of the car, which covers the oil sump, to remove the closure bolt and let the used oil drain out. While this drains, change the oil filter cartridge, ensuring to replace the seal, and then close the oil sump bolt and reinstall the protection panel.

Now pour the new engine oil into the designated filler and you’re done.
