How to Replace the Oil Filter on a Suzuki Swift

Model: Suzuki Swift MK 3 - Years 1994-2004
Part: Oil filter

In this tutorial video, you will see how to replace the oil filter on a Suzuki Swift by following some simple steps: the first thing to do is to purchase a new oil filter and engine oil (check the grade in the owner's manual); the next step is to lift the vehicle using a hydraulic lift or jack and secure it with axle stands. Use a ratchet spanner to loosen the oil filter; place a container under the oil sump to catch the used oil; remove the old oil filter and install the new oil filter, tightening it sufficiently with the ratchet spanner. Using a 17 mm socket, unscrew the oil drain plug. Position a container underneath to avoid spilling on the floor. Wait for all the used oil to drain into the container, then re-screw the drain plug. Lower the vehicle and lift the bonnet, securing it with the prop rod; top up the new engine oil using a funnel to facilitate the operation.
