How to Change Engine Oil at Home?

[VonLeah]

Here are the step-by-step methods for changing engine oil at home: 1. Prepare a bucket of engine oil that meets the lubrication standard, an original oil filter, an oil filter tool, an adjustable wrench or a wrench suitable for the size of the oil pan screw, an oil pan, a piece of cotton cloth, start the vehicle for about 1 minute to allow the oil to fully circulate, and then turn off the engine. 2. Open the oil filler cap, and use the tool to loosen the oil filter and oil pan screw. 3. Place the oil pan under the oil pan screw, completely loosen the oil pan screw, and drain the old oil until it stops flowing completely. 4. Tighten the oil pan screw and wipe off excess oil with a cotton cloth. Unscrew the old oil filter, it is recommended to pad with a cotton cloth to avoid burns, apply oil to the seal ring of the new oil filter, and tighten it clockwise. 5. Add new oil from the oil filler port, it is recommended to consult the 4S store in advance for the amount to be added, and tighten the oil filler cap after adding. 6. Restart the engine for 1-2 minutes, observe whether there is oil leakage at the oil pan screw and oil filter, if there is oil leakage, turn off the engine immediately for inspection and treatment; if there is no oil leakage, check the oil level on the dipstick after turning off the engine, and add to the standard position (the position slightly above the middle of the oil scale), the replacement is complete.
