Step 1: Preparation (15 minutes)
- Park vehicle on level ground and engage parking brake
- Gather materials: correct oil (as calculated), OEM oil filter, drain pan, funnel, wrenches, gloves
- Run engine for 3-5 minutes to warm oil (improves drainage)

- Allow oil to drain completely (5-7 minutes)
- Clean drain plug and replace sealing washer if damaged
Step 3: Filter Replacement (10 minutes)
- Locate oil filter housing (engine bay, typically near front)
- Remove old filter using appropriate oil filter wrench
- Clean filter housing mating surface
- Apply thin film of new oil to gasket of new filter
- Install new filter hand-tight (do not overtighten)
Step 4: Refilling & Verification (15 minutes)
- Reinstall and tighten drain plug to 25-30 ft-lbs (34-41 Nm)
- Using funnel, add 90% of calculated oil capacity
- Start engine and run for 1-2 minutes, then check for leaks
- Turn off engine, wait 5 minutes, then check dipstick
- Add oil gradually until level reaches “MAX” mark on dipstick
- Reset oil life monitor through vehicle information display
