This video shows how to replace the engine oil and its filter. First, lift the car, then remove the plastic panels protecting the underbody, unscrew the oil filler cap in the engine bay, and locate the 17mm plug on the oil sump and unscrew it to drain the used oil into a container.

To replace the filter, simply unscrew the cap containing the filter cartridge, remove the old cartridge, and insert a new one. Once this step is complete, add the correct quantity and quality of engine oil and refit the previously removed panels.
