Before you begin, open the bonnet of your Opel Meriva to access the engine compartment. Start by unscrewing and removing the upper oil filler cap. Next, you will need to lift the front end of your vehicle to access the lower drain nut. Proceed by unscrewing and removing the lower nut to drain all the engine oil. Once the engine oil has completely drained, re-screw the lower nut and lower the front end. At this point, insert the new oil through the upper filler hole, then re-screw the corresponding cap, and the replacement is complete.
