How to Change the Oil Filter on a Land Rover Freelander

Model: Land Rover Freelander Freelander 1 - Years 1997-2006
Part: Oil filter

Do you want to change the oil filter on your car? Let’s look at removing the oil filter on the Freelander. Lift the front bonnet and secure it. Use a socket spanner to unscrew the large securing bolt of the container cap where the oil filter is located, then remove the old filter and position a new one, ensuring it fits snugly against the walls of the housing. Replace the engine oil as well if you have exceeded the recommended mileage. Drain the engine oil from below: unscrew the bolt to let all the used liquid flow out.
