There are a couple different options depending on engine and options. I can't find any definitive way to tell which one each has so it looks like you will have to see the documents and then compare with how your vehicle is equipped. Looks like the 4 cylinder has either one or two so I would look towards the rear of the vehicle and see if you have a one back there and that means you would have two.

Let me know what you find. Thanks

I don't see what not. Just try to get a couple different angles from behind the engine and then down the rest of the vehicle. That way I can just orient myself and we will figure it out.
