Question
I recently purchased a 2001 olds intrigue v6. I have bought a chilton & haynes manual,but none show me how to change the engine oil? Are their special tools I need? I would appreciate any help or any on-line websites help. Thank you in advance James Gonzales

Answer
Hi James:

Ummm I'm not an olds dealer but it depends on the engine in the car it could have 2 different V6 engines a 3800 or a 3.5 Liter if it's a 3.5 liter I belive the oil filter in in the oil pan. there is a big plug in the bottom of the pan and the filter is on top of that plug. if it's a 3800 the filter is on the passenger side of the engine near the frame. Hope that helps you out...
