If you are not sure about doing it yourself, take it to kwikfit or national tyres etc. and they will do an oil/filter change while you wait for around £35 to £45 (depending on the type of oil needed)

Just had oil and filter change at National cost £47 for Castrol Edge fully synthetic 5w40.Don't think I'll bother trying to do it myself at this price.
