Renewing the oil filter
Tools
The engine must not be run without a filter ele-
ment in the oil filter. There is a risk of engine
damage caused by particles and by the oil pres-
sure being too low.
1. Unscrew the filter cover using the socket.
Do not use an adjustable spanner or other open
tool, as there is a risk of damaging the filter cov-
er.
2. Lift out the filter housing cover with filter el-
ement. The filter housing will drain automat-
ically once the filter has been removed.
3. Undo the old filter from the cover by careful-
ly bending it to one side.
4. Fit a new O-ring on the cover. Lubricate the
O-ring with engine oil.
5. Press a new filter into the snap fastener in the
cover and tighten the filter cover to 25 Nm
(18 lbf/ft).
6. Make sure the oil filter drain has emptied the
oil from the filter housing. Screw on the filter
cover firmly with the socket.
7. Start the engine and inspect the filter housing
for leaks.
