Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

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

Do we want to change the engine oil of our car? We lift the car with a jack and see how the oil and the filter itself are replaced. We lift the car on a pillar or jack bridge, unscrew the pin of the oil pan with a socket wrench, let the liquid flow into a container for disposal and screw the pin of the sump again. After removing the oil from the engine, we replace the oil filter with a suitable strap wrench. We bring the car to the ground and lift the bonnet, let's put it in safety. We top up the engine with new oil. We measure the ideal oil level with the metal dipstick.
