How to Perform a Basic Service on the Renault Megane 3?

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

A basic service consists of a simple engine oil change and oil filter replacement. No other replacements are required in this type of service, unlike a full service where all filters are replaced and various elements are inspected. Begin by lifting the front hatch and opening the oil filler cap, then raise the vehicle and open the oil sump to drain the used oil into a suitably sized container. After closing the oil sump, return to the engine compartment to replace the oil filter and pour in the new engine oil.
