Automatic Gearbox Oil Change on an Opel Insignia

Model: Vauxhall Insigna Insigna A, MK 1 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Transmission

To change the oil in the automatic gearbox, you need to lift the car (preferably with a ramp; otherwise, use jacks and axle stands, ensuring the vehicle is secure). Position a large container under the gearbox and remove the lower bolt that acts as a plug for the gearbox, as clearly shown in the video. We mentioned a large container because there will be about 7 litres of oil in the automatic gearbox. In the video, you can also see the recommended oil container. Fill the gearbox with this oil and this quantity. Cheers!

Where is the Fuel Filter Located in a Volvo XC60?

In this video, you will see where the fuel filter is located in a Volvo XC60 and how to proceed if you need to replace it. As shown, the filter is positioned at the lower part of the engine, right between the left half-shaft and the sway bar attachment. To replace the filter, first, go underneath the vehicle, taking all necessary safety precautions. Then, using an 18mm wrench, open the drain valve and allow any water present to escape. Next, unscrew the housing, remove the old filter, insert the replacement along with a new gasket, and reassemble everything.
