#1: Changing oil, filter, spark plugs and other service question Author: Lewis, Location: Isle Of WightPosted: Tue Oct 11, 2011 12:00 pm ---- Hi guys, had a little search, seen some threads about draining etc but none for the 180! Im trying to teach myself how to service a car hence why i want to have a go at it..
Only 19 so got little experience and got a lot to learn so don't get annoyed if its simple stuff please
So ive bought myself some total quartz 9000 5w/40 oil and i know where it goes however where is the drainage hole for the 180's oil i couldn't see it earlier having a quick glance.
I also know i need Bosch Super 4 spark plugs over NGKs..where abouts can i get these, take it these are not universal and i need to make sure i get ones for the 180. There's a few on ebay but i dont know whether to trust they are correct ones i need..
Are the spark plugs easy to access, are they in the middle of the block like on the TU 16v engine or on the back edge of the engine.
Also what is the best oil filter for my 180 if someone could link me that would be brilliant, ive seen ebay ones but they look cheap and nasty.
I have a broken wrist at the moment so not easy to get to a peugeot garage for any parts like the oil filter so any links would be greatly appreciated.
Guess it would also be wise to do the anti freeze as winter is coming although that was done last Christmas, if this should be fine please let me know.
Thanks.
Lewis
