Process for replacing an oil filter: 1. Remove the drain plug to drain the engine oil; 2. After draining, wipe the drain plug clean, then reinstall and tighten it with a torque of 30 Nm; 3. Loosen the oil filter using an oil filter wrench; 4. Apply engine oil to the O-ring of the new oil filter; 5. Hand-tighten the new oil filter onto the oil filter bracket until the O-ring contacts the mounting surface; 6. After contact with the mounting surface, use the oil filter wrench to tighten the filter an additional three-quarters of a turn with a torque of 15 Nm. To ensure proper tightening, accurately identify the initial contact position of the filter's O-ring with the mounting surface.
