Hi, I have a 2018 Sport Nav 1.6 diesel 6 speed automatic

Has anyone changed the oil & filter themselves?

Is there an access opening in the engine under tray to allow removal of the sump plug and draining the oil?

If yes - can this be accessed without raising the car off the ground?

I believe that the filter can be accessed and removed from under the bonnet

I would appreciate any assistance available

The info i have shows the filter can be accessed from the top but you'll need to remove the PCV ventilation hose plus the air cleaner inlet and outlet ducts to access the filter,I'd see how you get on because you may be able to get at the filter omitting some of the removals.
The complete undershield needs to come off to access the sump plug (13 fixings)
