Let's discover the process of carrying out the routine maintenance check, replacing the engine oil and oil filter, of the Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 TDI V6. First, we lift the vehicle and start by unscrewing the oil drain plug located under the engine, letting it drain into a container for about ten minutes; then we unscrew and remove the oil filter cartridge, replacing it with a new one (paying special attention to the gasket), as shown in the video.

All that's left to do is pour in the new engine oil, topping up the correct amount.
