The engine oil capacity for the Mitsubishi Colt is 5 litres. This should have a viscosity rating of 5W40. In addition to the engine oil, you also need to obtain the oil filter as both should be replaced together.

In the first few minutes of the video, it also shows how to replace the air filter, but this operation is not necessary for the engine oil change. What you need to do is position yourself under the car with a collection container and open the plug of the oil sump to drain the used lubricant.

Close the plug and replace the oil filter before moving to the front bonnet to add the new engine oil.
