How to change the engine oil and oil filter of the Renault Megane 3

Model: Renault Megane Megane III, Megane 3 - Years 2008-2015
Part: Engine oil

Today we will explain in a simple and quick way how to perform an oil change and oil filter replacement on a Renault Megane 3 vehicle. To perform the oil replacement, we open the front hood, unscrew the oil tank cap, and lift the front part of the car. We remove the lower cover of the vehicle and unscrew the nut on the oil pan to let the used oil drain into a container; to perform this operation, it is necessary to use a hex key. We move the container under the oil filter and avoid the filter box cap. We replace the filter and close the box cap. We mount the lower cover of the vehicle and bring it back to the ground. We pour about 6 liters of oil into the oil tank and close the cap.
