Engine Oil and Oil Filter Replacement

Model: Ford Fiesta MK VI, MK 6, Fiesta 6 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Engine oil

Open the bonnet and ensure it is securely supported. Instead of draining it from the oil sump, you can vacuum the used oil with an appropriate suction system through the dipstick tube. Once the used oil is extracted, replace the oil filter cartridge located on the right side (when facing the engine): unscrew the plastic cap, remove the old cartridge, and insert the new one; before screwing the cap back on, apply the new O-ring seal and coat it with oil. At this point, fill the engine with new oil according to the SAE specifications and the quantities indicated in the user and maintenance manual.
