The oil filter is one of the most important components to consider in your car's maintenance. Each time you change the engine oil, you must also change the filter, which purifies the oil circulating in the engine from impurities.

If the filter is dirty, it can cause irreversible damage to the vehicle. To perform the disassembly operation, lift the car with a jack and then unscrew the old filter with a spanner.

While removing the filter, you should also change the engine oil. Once the new filter is screwed in, simply remove the jack from under the car and the job is complete.
