Here’s how to change the engine oil and filter on a Fiat Ducato MK3: open the bonnet and unscrew the oil filler cap. Warm the oil by running the engine at idle for 5 minutes; add a pre-change cleaner, such as Liqui-Moly Pro-Line, which you can find on eBay with code 236309124473 for £17.66, with free delivery in 2 days.

Run the engine for 10 to 15 minutes (do not drive the vehicle after this treatment!). Lift the vehicle, securing it on axle stands, remove the protective cover and place a large container under the drain plug.

Allow the contents of the sump to drain completely (dispose of the used oil properly at an authorised centre). From underneath, access the filter by unscrewing it counter-clockwise; add it to the used oil. Lubricate the seal of the new filter with clean oil and screw it in by hand.

Replace the plug and seal of the sump, reposition the cover and lower the vehicle. Now pour 90% of the recommended oil quantity through the filler cap. Screw the filler cap back on and start the engine for 30 seconds to fill the filter.

Turn off and check the oil level with the dipstick: add oil gradually until reaching the maximum level.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
