How to Change the Engine Oil and Oil Filter in a Peugeot 208?

Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Engine oil

Before starting, gather the materials you need: a new oil filter, a suitable cleaner, and a container of engine oil. With the car off and parked on a flat surface, open the bonnet to remove the oil cap and add the cleaner. Start the engine for 10 to 15 minutes without putting the car in gear. Turn off the engine, lift the car on axle stands, and open the oil sump bolt to drain the used oil. Next, move to the filter, loosen it with a socket spanner, and remove it. Lubricate the gasket of the new filter and install it. Lower the car and add the new engine oil.
