Changing oil tip

pendulum

Take the undertray off and you've a chance of spotting other problems like oil leaks before they become serious... it's usually only a few easy to remove bolts, I don't see what the problem is.

you say you have done this on a corsa but dont mention which engine
lots of corsas depend on a very small hole to tension the timing chain so if you used a flushing agent there is a possibility this hole could block
i am and always have been against flushing oils because they are marketing gimmicks and are pushed usually by second rate garages that can use them as a source of income seeing as they dont get customer referrals for competence
no one i know in the garage trade would recommend these elixiors

If there is an oil leak down there it will bypass the undertray as that is not disigned to stop oil seepage. The problem is that an oil change that can be done by crawling under the front of the car for 1 min becomes an epic when the car has to be raised, 3 bolts out each side and 2 at the front, 15mins, minimum,

You never watched a formula 1 pitstop???, ;)
