Now, let's go under the car and, after having placed a bowl and using the suitable wrench, we unscrew the bolt that plugs the oil drain hole of the engine. Once the old oil has drained for all the quantity present in the engine, close the bleed hole, mount the new filter and pour the new engine oil into the appropriate opening. So, that's it!
