How to Change Your Car’s Oil at Home: A Step-by-Step Guide

Please Refill Oil

After replacing the oil filter and drain plug, replace the underpan and lower the vehicle to the ground. Open the hood and remove the oil cap marked with the oil can. Using a funnel, fill the engine with the amount of oil specified by the manufacturer.

Check the Oil Level and see if there are any Leaks

After adding the oil, start the car and drive normally for 10 seconds to circulate the oil. Finally, use a dipstick to ensure the oil level is at the correct level. Checking the oil is easy. Remove the dipstick from the tube, wipe off all the oil with a paper towel, reinsert the dipstick, remove the dipstick and make sure the oil reaches the full mark at the tip of the dipstick. Finally, start the car and let it idle until it warms up. Check for leaks under the car and around the oil filter.
