How to Change the Oil and Filter on a Land Rover Evoque

Model: Land Rover Evoque L538, MK 1 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance

First, lift the hood and secure it with the prop rod. Next, remove the plastic cover and then unscrew the oil filter. After removing the plastic cover, take out the screws. To loosen the oil filter, use a cup wrench (65 / 14). Then, remove the plug located under the vehicle; first, lift the oil dipstick and unscrew the oil fill cap. (If you work with a hot engine, the oil drains out faster). After raising the vehicle and securing it with jack stands, remove the undercarriage cover to access the 13 mm plug. Place a drain pan underneath to let all the oil drain out. While the oil finishes dripping, unscrew the oil filter, bringing it almost to complete removal. After a few minutes, remove the filter completely. Replace the filter with a new one and tighten it to about 2.5 lb-ft. Screw in the plug under the engine like a regular bolt with a 13 mm wrench. Refill the oil (0w-30) with 6.5 quarts. Job complete.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
