Jack the front of the car up high enough that the front wheels r not touching the ground. With a suitable drain bucket placed under the oil pan, remove the drain plug with a 5/8'' or 16mm wrench, & drain the engine oil. Turn front wheels ALL THE WAY to the right. With an oil filter wrench, remove the oil filter from the lower left/front corner of the engine. Replace with a new filter (Ford part number FL-820S). Set vehicle back to the ground. Fill up engine with 5 liters of the proper grade 5W30 engine oil of ur choice. Hope this helps.

all oil changes are pretty much the same if you are having trouble guessing how to do it l suggest you don't. Oil changes do not cost that much find a special at some place and just take it in. Like l said if you have to ask how to change it you should not even try.

no it just takes a rench the oil filter is usualy on the left side of the engin when you are in the car usualy it is toward the front
