To replace the engine oil in a Nissan Micra, park the car on a flat surface and allow the engine to cool down after switching it off. Lift the vehicle using a ramp or appropriate axle stands and remove any undertray if present. Next, place a container under the oil sump and unscrew the drain plug, allowing the used lubricant to fully drain.

Once drained, refit the plug using a new sealing washer. Open the filler cap from the engine bay and add the oil specified for your engine type.

Finally, check the level using the dipstick, briefly start the engine, and check for leaks, rechecking the level after a few minutes.
