How to change oil and filter on an Opel Corsa B

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa B - Years 1993-2000
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we can see how to change the oil and filter on an Opel Corsa version B: first of all we need to lift the car a little so we can work underneath it, then we proceed to unscrew the oil filter, placing a basin underneath to catch the oil that will drain out. We clean the area with some absorbent paper and screw the new filter in place. Now we move under the oil pan, where we will place the same basin (it must be quite large) to collect the old oil, which we will then dispose of at an authorized center. After the oil has drained, it is advisable to replace the cap and a new o-ring; tighten it well and lower the car back to the ground. Now we will perform the service filling with 4 liters of synthetic oil SAE 5W40. Start the engine and circulate the new oil, then check the oil level.
