Whenever you change the oil in your engine, you should also change the oil filter, which purifies the oil circulating in the engine from impurities and usually gets dirty easily. The following guide explains how to change it in a few simple steps.

Once you have purchased the new filter, park your car in a safe location to proceed with the replacement. After raising the car with a jack, unscrew the old filter with a wrench.

Information on where the filter is located can be found directly in the vehicle's manual.
