After raising the vehicle, secure it with appropriate supports to prevent it from falling during the work. Position an oil collection tray under the engine.

Unscrew the oil cap on the sump and allow it to drain. Using a ratchet wrench with a joint and extension, gently unscrew the oil filter and remove it from its housing.

Replace the old cartridge with a new one, also replacing the O-ring seal. Screw the oil cap back on, refit the filter onto its support, and top up with new oil. Check the correct level on the dipstick.

Do not dispose of used oil in the environment; take it to designated collection centres.

If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
