Lift the Volkswagen onto the ramp. Remove the protective cover by unscrewing the securing bolts.

Locate the two bolts and remove them to take off the plug, allowing all the oil to drain out. Now, refit everything. Once you have located the front point to top up the oil, proceed according to the manufacturer's instructions for this operation.

Now close it up and lower the car from the ramp. Start the engine and after a short while, check the levels again; top up if necessary.

Once done, the operation is complete.
