How to Change the Engine Oil of a Volkswagen Up!

Model: Volkswagen Up MK 1 - Years 2011-2024
Part: Accessory kit

Before you can begin, open the bonnet of your Volkswagen Up. Start by removing the oil dipstick. Next, lift the front of the car. This will give you access to the lower drain nut of the oil sump, which you need to unscrew and remove. Once you have removed the drain nut, wait for all the oil to drain out, then re-screw the nut. At this point, lower the car, then add the new oil through the filler hole, successfully completing the engine oil change.
