Let's discover how to quickly and easily perform the routine maintenance service by changing the engine oil and oil filter on the Renault Clio. First, lift the vehicle and remove the plastic protective cover located under the engine; then unscrew the drain bolt found on the sump, allowing the oil to drain into a container for about ten minutes.

At this point, unscrew the oil filter cartridge and replace it with a new one; screw it in by hand first, then tighten gently.

Finally, pour in the new engine oil, filling up to the maximum level mark!
