I have the service kit sitting under the stairs.
Someone said he would do it for me but its just finding the time as hes quite busy atm!
Anyone got any tips of where the filters can be found and how to change oil and stuff???
That would be a massive help as I couldnt find anything on youtube!

Oil filter - At back of engine, just above o/s driveshaft, get this from underneath.
Air filter - Remove airbox housing. Various torx screws. Undo these and part the airbox. Change filter.
Fuel filter - Not sure on this one. Will update when I have a look.
Drain the oil, sump plug should be a 13mm. Change oil filter. Put car on level surface and top up with 4 litres of 5W30 oil. Start engine and run for 30 seconds. Turn engine off, and check level. If low, top up by 100ml and then recheck.....Repeat this.

Im sure the fuel filter is under the car in front of the tank, and it uses the quick release fittings.

Boys up top are correct.
Little screw that holds the filter to the body. Undo this. Then on either side of the filter there are two connector. On each connector, there are two push in fitting. Push these in and pull the connector from the filter. Replace with new filter ensuring arrow pointing in direction of flow.

k3yy, you only need 4.3 litres hun. Put 4 litres in to start, run the engine and then check the level. Top up slowly until level is on maximum.
P.s. Get some Wynns or Forte engine flush. Add to oil before you drain and run it for 10 minutes.
