Complete Service for a Suzuki Swift

Model: Suzuki Swift MK 4, Rs41 - Years 2004-2010
Part: Checks and maintenance

Perform an essential service on a Suzuki Swift: even if we need to change the oil, check its level to ensure there are no abnormal consumptions. Leave the top cap open to allow complete drainage from the sump. If you lift the car, use safety stands to prevent it from falling. Use a 14 mm socket and place a container under the sump. Dispose of the used oil at an authorised centre. Also, remove the oil filter, which will similarly drain oil. To change the air filter, return to the bonnet, and at the top of the manifold, remove the dirty filter and replace it. You can find a complete service kit for the Suzuki Swift on eBay, for example, consisting of 4 litres of synthetic oil SAE 5W30, oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, and cabin filter for £44.99. Now, return under the vehicle and check that the oil sump plug gasket is in good condition. Refit it, then change the oil filter, ensuring to coat the new gasket with fresh oil. Tighten the filter by hand. Lower the vehicle and fill with new oil. If you have a funnel, you are set. If you have a bottle neck, it’s the same. Otherwise, as our YouTuber teaches, you can slide the oil along the dipstick, and it will go straight into the tank. It may take a bit longer, but you can manage. Let's also replace the pollen filter, located behind the glove compartment. You will find a flap with two side clips, which you will open, and behind it, you will find the filter. Clean the compartment and replace the filter with the new one, remembering that the arrow always points downwards. Naturally, check that the wiper fluid level is correct, as well as the coolant and brake fluid levels; in short, the classic level checks.

First of all, let's go inside the cabin, it is not necessary to insert the key or unlock all the locks, then we locate and operate the lever located in the lower left area of the cabin, right next to the driver's seat.
