Before you start, open the bonnet of your Volkswagen Passat. Begin by removing the dipstick to check the engine oil level.

Once done, put the car in first gear and engage the handbrake, then lift the vehicle. At this point, unscrew and remove the lower nut from the oil sump to drain all the engine oil. Once all the oil has drained, re-screw the drain nut, and then lower the vehicle.

After lowering the vehicle, you can add the new oil, and you will have successfully completed the change.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
