How to replace the engine oil of the Skoda Rapid

Model: Skoda Rapid MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Engine oil

Today we will explain how to replace the motor oil of a Skoda Rapid vehicle on your own. To perform the oil replacement, we first need to open the front hood and unscrew the oil tank cap. We lift the vehicle on a scaffolding or on stands to access the oil pan cap. We let the used oil drain out into the previously positioned container, and when the oil has finished draining, we close the cap. Next to the oil pan, we find the oil filter box that needs to be replaced. Using a ratchet wrench, we unscrew the nut and replace the filter inside. After replacing the filter, we lower the vehicle to the ground and perform the reset of the warning light using a diagnostic computer and OBD socket.
