Oil Change for Volkswagen UP

Model: Volkswagen Up MK 1 - Years 2011-2024
Part: Engine oil

The oil change is an operation that requires a lift. Once the car is secured on the lift, work on the drain bolt located underneath the vehicle and begin to unscrew it; place a container underneath as oil will spill out. After unscrewing the drain bolt, use pliers on the oil filter, as shown in the video, turning it carefully; at this point, all the oil present will come out. Fit the new filter and re-screw the drain bolt. Once done, remove the car from the lift, open the bonnet, and pour the new oil into the designated filler neck, checking the oil level with the dipstick after a few seconds.
