Where is the oil filter on the Lifan X60?

In the Lifan X60 car, the engine fluid filter is located in the engine compartment. On this model of Chinese cars, it is better to install and dismantle the filter element from under the bottom of the car.

Due to the inconvenient location, it is almost impossible to remove the filter from the top from the engine compartment. This is prevented by the hot exhaust manifold.

Therefore, you can reach it with only one hand, but it will not work that way. Especially if you are changing engine fluid for the first time. When the filter is installed at an enterprise, it is most likely not lubricated, as a result of which the element simply sticks to the thread.

Step by step guide to replace

If you are replacing a lubricant consumable ICE in Lifan X60, then in any case you will need to change the oil filter component. If you understand what is at stake, then you can follow these renovation work independently, as even a novice car enthusiast can do it. But if you are not sure that you can do everything correctly, then we recommend that you entrust this matter to a professional at the service station. Consider the process of self-changing consumables and the Lifan filter element below.

What is required for this?

Prepare in advance:

new oil filter;
new engine fluid;
screwdriver;
sandpaper;
chisel;
hammer.

The last two tools will be needed if you cannot dismantle the part with a screwdriver and sandpaper.

Step by step instructions

As mentioned above, you will have to dismantle the Lifan X60 filter from under the bottom. So if you decide to replace consumables yourself, then in any case you will need to find a garage with a pit or an overpass. Of course, you shouldn't change consumables while wearing clean clothes. So, drive your Lifan X60 into a hole and open the hood.

Your car probably has a crankcase guard installed. Take a spanner “13” and unscrew all the screws securing the protective pallet. If you have the opportunity, then use a socket head, since it will be very inconvenient for a wrench to do this, since the screws are slightly recessed.
Having unscrewed the screws, dismantle the crankcase protection.
Next, you will be able to see the oil pan. To drain the used consumable, you need to unscrew the drain bolt. He is here alone, so you will not confuse him with anything. If necessary, clean any dirt from the bolt. Using a “15” spanner, you need to loosen the screw, but do not completely loosen it.
After loosening the bolt, move the key aside. Place a container under it, into which you will collect the spent "consumable", and unscrew the screw completely. Be careful - the oil is very hot. Also be careful not to lose the screw together with the O-ring.
When all consumables have been drained from the engine, tighten the drain screw. Now you can do the oil filter. The intake manifold and the high temperature do not allow it to be removed from above. And the point is not whether it is hot or not, but the fact that it is simply impossible to remove the filter with one hand in most cases.
Most likely, like most owners of Lifan X60, the oil filter is firmly installed, since it is stuck to the thread. In this case, unscrewing it by hand in any case will not work. First, use a screwdriver - pierce the cylindrical body of the part with it and use it as a lever and unscrew the part counterclockwise.
If this does not work out, then wrap the body of the part with sandpaper and try to unscrew it like this. It is desirable that the "sandpaper" was as large as possible so that it could "grasp" the body. If this does not help, then use a hammer with a chisel and try to knock out the filter. The last option is the most effective.
You need to wipe the seat with a rag.
Use only original products, refrain from buying a fake. The original oil filter is part number LF479Q1-1017100A. Before direct installation of the element, the threads and gum must be lubricated with engine fluid. So that next time you don't have any problems with dismantling it. Tighten the element by hand without screwing in too much.
Then reinstall and tighten the drain bolt. If mechanical damage is present on it, then it is better to install a new bolt. This completes your work under the bottom.
Locate the consumable filler cap under the hood and unscrew it.
Refill the engine with new engine fluid. The engine will contain about 2.4 liters of fluid, so purchase at least three liters of "consumable" in advance. Pour liquid inside and check the level on the dipstick. The filler plug can now be screwed on.
Next, start the engine and wait about five minutes until it completely drives the fluid through the system.
Go down under the bottom of the car and check it visually for leaks.
Switch off the engine and check the level again, add if necessary. Remember that the level of the consumable should be approximately between the MIN and MAX marks.
Having done this, reinstall the crankcase guard.
