Service/oil change help

Postby wizkid2003 » Tue Oct 23, 2018 5:40 pm

Hi all.
Excuse the stupidity of this question but I'm looking to basic service my mk8 Tourneo Custom and can't find anywhere that gives a step by step run-through. I would've tawt that finding how to do an oil change on a mk8 would be easy to find but apparently not.
I'm talking oil,oil filter,fuel filter and air filter. The simple stuff hopefully.
Any help is appreciated.

It is very simple, but yourself from Ford (Quicko) the oil and filters.

Oil filter is the old metal type screw on ones, finger of oil on the seal before fitting it.
Fuel filter is a paper cylinder type and you need to unscrew the plastic filter bowl then remove the old filter and fit new then easiest is full the bowl with fuel then refit it, just make sure if there's any locking tabs etc. The fuel pump is electronic and should self bleed anyway I know mine sorted itself out as I did spill a bit. It is near the passenger front wheel.
Air filter won't be hard, pollen filter is behind the glovebox if you want to do that.
