On the Isuzu MU-X, the work begins in the engine compartment, with the hood open, where the main points of intervention are shown and everything needed for topping up is prepared. Before going under the vehicle, the upper area is kept tidy so that when it’s time to fill up, no time is wasted and the engine doesn't get dirty.

The central part of the operation takes place underneath the Isuzu MU-X, where work is done in the undercarriage area: access is gained to the oil drain point and the outflow is managed with a collection basin. From underneath, the oil filter is also reached, which is unscrewed and removed, taking care not to let oil spill everywhere.

Before installing the new filter, the seat is cleaned with a rag, ensuring that the gasket sits properly and no dirt is left that could cause leaks; finally, the new filter is screwed into place. Once the work underneath is finished, we return to the engine compartment of the Isuzu MU-X for the topping up: in the video, the use of a funnel and the bottle of oil being poured into the engine can be seen.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
