Open the bonnet and prop it up with the support rod. Remove the plastic cover as shown in the video. Raise the car as you need to work underneath to remove the oil filter.

Unscrew the reservoir cap and then the drain plug to allow the used oil to drain out. The oil filter can now be simply unscrewed: if the O-ring is still good, remove it and use it on the new filter; otherwise, replace it as well (in this case, remember to lubricate it before fitting it). Clean the oil filter housing and top up with new oil. Reassemble everything.

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.
