Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Oil change on Opel Astra 1.4

Do we want to replace oil and filter on our Opel Astra? We lift the vehicle with a lifting jack, remove the protective panel under the floor if present, unscrew the pin of the oil pan with a socket wrench (after removing the protective plastic panel), let the liquid flow into a container for disposal and screw the cup pin back on (unscrew the filter next to it with a socket wrench). We bring the car to the ground and lift the engine hood, lift the front hood and unscrew the oil inlet cap. We unscrew the oil filter and mount a new one. We top up with new oil.
