Following the instructions in this guide, we will see how to perform the ordinary maintenance of changing the motor oil and oil filter of the Opel Zafira 1.8. First, we lift the vehicle and unscrew the oil drain plug found on the oil pan, letting the oil drain into a container for about ten minutes; then we remove the air filter box to access the oil filter, unscrewing the cartridge with the appropriate wrench, as shown in the video.

At this point, we gently screw in the new oil filter, and finally top up with the new motor oil!
