There is a plug, which is a bolt, located on the bottom part of the oil pan. Make sure you are not directly underneath the plug. The drain pan should be directly under it. Use a socket wrench or an adjustable wrench to
First, you need to remove the oil fill cap under the hood so the oil will flow out freely. Be sure that you have a container for the used oil later; take it to recycle centers which are usually located around town. Remember that it is now illegal to dump oil anywhere. Next find the drain plug, which will be located on the bottom of the engine block. It is the only plug located usually in the middle of a black pan in the front of the vehicle. Be careful that you have the right plug because some transmissions are also equipped with a drain plug. Once the plug has been located, find the right size socket or wrench to fit it, and be careful not to round of the head of the drain plug when you are removing it. Then let the oil drain in to your container. When the pan has drained replace the plug, but do not over-tighten it because you can strip the treads out of pan.

Before pouring new oil into the engine block, the drainage bolt must be placed back into the car’s oil pan with the 10-millimeter socket wrench. This assures the new oil will not drip out into the old oil. To replace the old filter with a new one, the new oil must first be applied to the seal of the new filter. This lubes the seal on the new filter so it will not break due to friction. If it does break, the filter will leak and a new oil change will be required. Pouring the new oil in is a relatively easy step compared to all the other steps. To pour the new oil in, the engine oil cap must be removed. The recommended amount of oil and oil type, which is different for every car, can be found in the owners-manual or on the car dealer’s website. For instance, if the recommended amount of oil is 8 quarts, pour in 8 quarts, which can be measured by bottles (usually sold in 2 quart bottles), through a funnel into the engine block.
