Want to replace the engine oil in a Suzuki Vitara? Let's also replace the filter. Lift the front bonnet, locate the oil filter.

Unscrew the worn oil filter and fit a new one after replacing the oil. Raise the car on a column lift or jack, use a socket spanner to unscrew the bolt from the oil sump (after removing the plastic protective panel), allow the fluid to drain into a disposal container, and screw the sump bolt back in after draining.

Lower the car and top up the engine with new oil. Measure the oil level with the metal dipstick multiple times until you reach the recommended level.
