Mend LDV Maxus Change Engine Oil

How to change the engine oil on my LDV Maxus ?

I've changed the oil on petrol cars loads of times but not a diesel van. Any advice please? will i need any special tools or parts other than a socket set and filter removal tool? - It's a 2005 LDV Maxus 2.5ltr. thanks in advance.

Take off undertray, 3 t30 hex bolts holding it on.

T50 hex for sump plug. Undo and put oil catching container under. Remember to remove sump bolt and washer.
Let oil drain out for half hour or untill it's stopped dripping.
Remove oil filter from back of block. Catch excess oil.
Put a little oil on filter gasket and Put on new filter.
Replace washer on sump plug and put a little oil on it before reattaching.
Now pour in oil. Should be about 6 and a half ltr.
