How do I change the oil in a Ford Puma?

I have recently purchased a Ford Puma and I am unsure of how to properly change the oil. Can someone walk me through the steps and provide any tips or precautions I should take?

First, you will need to gather all the necessary tools such as an oil filter wrench, a drain pan, and new oil. Then, locate the oil pan and drain plug underneath your car. Once the oil has drained completely, replace the oil filter and refill the engine with new oil. It's important to also check the oil level afterwards and dispose of the old oil properly.

I recommend checking your vehicle's manual for specific instructions and recommended oil type. It's also important to let the car cool down before attempting to change the oil to avoid any potential burns. Make sure to also wear protective gear and be careful not to spill any oil on the ground as it can be harmful to the environment.

If you are not confident in changing the oil yourself, it's always best to take your car to a certified mechanic. They have the expertise and the right tools to ensure it's done correctly. Plus, they can also check for any other potential issues with your car while they're at it.
