If possible, lift the vehicle on a lift or with a jack, using appropriate jack stands. Remove the splash shield to access the oil pan, and after positioning a suitable container under the drain plug, unscrew it to allow the old oil to drain out. Once the draining is complete, tighten the plug and proceed with replacing the oil filter: it is located right next to the oil pan and can be unscrewed with a socket wrench or a metal strap wrench.

Apply the new filter after coating the gasket with oil, and tighten it without exceeding the torque specifications. Finally, fill the engine with new oil according to the quantities and SAE specifications indicated in the owner's manual.
