Engine Oil and Oil Filter Replacement

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Engine oil

Position a suitable capacity tray under the oil sump and using a 45 Torx key, unscrew the drain plug located at the rear of the sump: to facilitate draining, unscrew the engine oil filler cap and remove the dipstick. Once the oil has drained completely, re-screw the plug. Proceed with the oil filter replacement: this is a cartridge filter and the container is located near the coolant reservoir. Using a 25 socket wrench, unscrew the cap of the oil filter container and extract the old cartridge; replace it with the new one, applying the new O-rings included in the new filter's packaging, lubricate them with oil, and reassemble. Finally, fill the engine with new oil according to the quantities and SAE specifications indicated in the user and maintenance manual.
