Diesel Fuel Filter; Engine Air Flow Indicator 3 - Vauxhall VIVARO Owner's Manual

O il change, oil filter change
Engine oil changes are to be carried out
depending on time intervals or mileage
intervals, since oil loses its lubrication
properties not only through engine
opera tion but also through ageing.
We recommend that you use genuine
Vauxhall oil filters.
