Let's look at the oil change for a Kia Picanto and the filter replacement. Lift the car with a jack, then locate the oil drain plug.

Unscrew the bolt located under the oil sump with a socket wrench as shown in the video. Once the bolt is unscrewed, let the oil drain into a container.

Prepare to re-screw the bolt under the oil sump with the wrench. Unscrew the oil filter located at the top of the oil sump with a chain wrench (replace the worn filter with a new one of the same type).

Finally, top up the engine with the new oil recommended by the car manufacturer.

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.
