Toyota Prius - Video tutorial

Model: Toyota Prius MK 1 - Years 2004-2009
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Engine oil and oil filter replacement

If the display indicates the time to change the oil, lift the vehicle onto the seat and carry out maintenance. Using a fixed wrench, gently unscrew the cap of the oil pan making it flow into a tray. At the same time open the oil cap on the engine to allow it to drain completely. Using the special wrench, gently unscrew the oil filter by acting on the body and extract it from its seat. Empty the residual oil in the container and filter into a tray. Carefully clean the filter seat with a rag. Replace the rubber gasket of the container. Replace the used cartridge with a new one of the same type. Refit the oil filter taking care to screw it in correctly and top up with new oil. Do not disperse the used oil in the environment but take it to the appropriate collection centers.

How to open the seat of a scooter without the key

The saddle is normally opened by inserting the key in the dashboard and pressing the appropriate control. If we do not have the key available, we can still open it by removing the panel which is placed immediately under the saddle where we rest our feet and intercept the opening cable and then pull it manually. This way the saddle will open.
