Model: Toyota Rav 4 Xa30, MK 3 - Years 2006-2013
Part: Engine oil

Since it is a fairly tall car, it is easy to access the oil pan in order to unscrew the drain plug located at the rear and drain the used oil, without having to lift it; once the drain is complete, screw the cap and intercept the oil filter located on the side of the sump on the driver's side; then use the special socket wrench to unscrew the filter, sprinkle the gasket of the new filter with oil and screw it into its seat without exceeding the tightening torque; finally fill the engine with clean oil until the level is reached, proceeding gradually.

The safe lock is indeed an anti-theft system that prevents thieves from accessing the car. This device locks the doors, both externally and internally, when the driver activates the central locking remote control after leaving the vehicle.

Then wait for the connection and recognition of the control unit and then select the blocks present and locate the safe lock to disable it. And the job will be completed.
