How to replace the engine oil and oil filter of the Opel Meriva

Model: Vauxhall Meriva MK 2, Meriva B - Years 2010-2017
Part: Engine oil

Today we will show you how to replace the engine oil and oil filter on an Opel Meriva car. To perform the engine oil replacement, we need to lift the car and remove the lower cover. We remove the oil cap and let the oil drain into a container. Once the oil has stopped draining, we close the cap and lower the vehicle back to the ground. The oil filter is located inside the front hood. We unscrew the nut on the filter and remove the box. After replacing the filter, we finish by topping up the oil in the tank, the amount to be added is 1.5 liters.
