How to replace the engine oil and oil filter of the Toyota RAV4

Model: Toyota Rav 4 Xa50, MK 5 - Years 2019-2026
Part: Engine oil

Below we will see the instructions that will allow us to carry out the routine maintenance service of the Toyota RAV 4. First, lift the vehicle and start by removing the lower plastic cover of the engine, unscrewing the fixing screws; then unscrew the oil drain plug that we find on the oil pan, letting the oil drain into a container for about ten minutes. At this point, unscrew the oil filter cartridge with the appropriate wrench, replacing it with the new one (screwing it gently by hand); finally, top up with the new engine oil!
