Position the vehicle on suitable car ramps to facilitate access to the oil sump. Remove the undertray to access the oil sump, place a container of appropriate capacity under the drain plug, and unscrew it to allow the used oil to drain out. While the oil is draining, proceed to replace the filter located under the intake manifold: to reach it, you need to remove the bracket supporting a sensor.

Then unscrew the plug, remove the old filter, and insert the new one, replacing the O-ring seals. Refit the plug under the sump and fill the engine with new oil until the correct level is reached.
