Carrying out the regular maintenance service is really very simple; let's see how to replace the engine oil and oil filter of the Citroen C3. First, lift the vehicle and start unscrewing the oil drain bolt found on the sump, allowing it to drain into a container for about ten minutes; then unscrew the oil filter cartridge by accessing it from the engine bay, using a socket wrench with an extension, as shown in the video.

At this point, also replace the air filter and finally pour in the new engine oil, topping up to the correct amount!
