Engine Oil and Oil Filter Replacement

Model: Dacia Sandero BS - Years 2008-2012
Part: Transmission fluid

The preliminary operation is to drain the engine oil; for this, unscrew the square-headed drain plug located under the oil sump. Next to the sump, you will find the oil filter container; unscrew it using a 27mm spanner and remove the old filter (pulling it out), replace it with a new one by pressing it directly into the casing, and reattach the plug, remembering to also replace the gasket found in the box by applying it directly to the threaded part. In the engine bay, unscrew the oil filler cap and add new engine oil, ensuring it meets the specifications and quantity required by the manufacturer.
