Video tutorial

In this video, see how to perform an oil and filter change on an Opel Corsa B: First, lift the vehicle slightly to work underneath, then unscrew the oil filter, placing a bowl underneath as some oil will spill out. Clean the area with absorbent paper and screw the new filter into place.

Now, move under the oil sump, where you will place the same bowl (it should be quite large) to collect the used oil, which you will dispose of at an authorised centre.

After the oil has drained, it is advisable to fit a new plug and O-ring; tighten well and lower the vehicle. Now, perform the service fill with 4 litres of synthetic oil SAE 5W40. Start the engine and allow the new oil to circulate, then check the level.
