Hello,

The oil filter is located on the lower part, on the passenger side of the engine. See picture and diagram below.

This vehicle uses 5W-30 or 10W-30 oil and takes 3.6 Quarts to fill up on an oil change.

Here is a helpful guide:

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
