Before starting work, prepare a new filter, which should match the engine of your car (the filter should be designed for a pressure of about 17.6 atm (1764 kPa) and oil (refill volume is about 6 l). The oil should be changed when the engine is warm.
1. Warm up the engine.
2. Turn off the ignition and unscrew the filler cap.
3. Raise the car with a jack.
4. Support the car with a stand.
5. Place a tray under the drain plug.
6. Unscrew the plug.
7. Drain the oil into the pan. After the oil has drained, wipe the plug with a clean cloth and screw the plug back on. Tighten the plug securely, being careful not to strip the threads.
8. Place a tray under the oil filter. Unscrew the oil filter by hand or with a wrench.
9. Wipe the area where the filter is located on the cylinder block with a clean cloth.
10. Lightly lubricate the rubber gasket of the new filter with engine oil and screw the filter into place. Tighten the filter by hand until the gasket contacts the cylinder block surface, then tighten it an additional 3/4 turn.
11. Lower the vehicle and fill with the required grade of oil, bringing the level to the upper mark.
12. Start the engine, after 10 seconds the oil pressure light should go out. If the lamp does not go out within 15-30 seconds, stop the engine, find and eliminate the cause.
13. With the engine running, check the tightness of the oil pan plug and filter by observing these areas for a minute.
14. Stop the engine and check the oil level again after a few minutes.
Top up if necessary.
