Is the oil drain plug and filter located under the plastic skidplate like guard under the car?

remove sump guard drian plug a little to the rear of sump .oil filter half way up engine block ,hope all goes well

If this is the same thing my uncle had, i do believe there is actually a debris deflection guard on the front of the oil pan, which you would have to remove to access the oil drain plug

there is a bolt underside of motor remove that and also your filter is located under you front bumper plastic guard toward left side just remember to put drain bolt and new filter on before dumping new oil in motor

Hello,

The drain plug of the chevrolet 2004 trial blazer is located under the engine skid plate it is with the oil filter. And there is a guard to be removed. There is a trap door before it.

The skid plate door is located by the drivers side door, directly midway underneath the vehicle. You will need a flat/phillips hear screwdriver to open the trap door. Do not worry, the screws are 'loss-proff' and will not fall off the trap door plate. Once this has been removed, the oil drain plug and oil filter are now visible and accessible.

Oil change should not take you more that 15/20 minutes.

Hope this helped.
Take care and good luck

the oil will NOT drain out of the filter mounting but will drain out of the plug on the oilpan(sump).located under the engine,at the bottom of the oil pan.use a new washer when replacing it,and only use a ring spanner(wrench)to remove it.you may have to remove the splash guard to get to the underside of the engine.(if fitted to your car)

The 2007 Tundra 5.7l engine doesn't have a spin on filter - it uses a replaceable paper cartridge within a permanent housing. Located under the skid plate on the front-left portion of the engine, the oil filter unit has two coolant hoses, a black plastic screw-in housing, and a large, metal, round screw with a 1/2" square fitting in the middle of it. The cartridge-type oil filter is in the housing.

If equipped with a skid plate, access is accomplished by removing the 5 skid plate bolts, allowing the plate to swing down on integrated hangars (with the front plastic bumper skirt still attached). To completely remove the skid plate, three small screws holding it to the front plastic bumper skirt must also be removed.

Toyotafilter kits contain a new filter cartridge, a plastic drain plug, and two O-rings. The drain plug is used to drain residual oil from the filter unit prior to removing the plastic screw-in housing. After removing the large, metal, round screw with a 1/2" square fitting in the middle of it, the plug simply snaps into the bottom of the plastic housing. The smaller of the two new O-rings replaces the existing O-ring on the screw.

Once drained, the plastic screw-in filter housing is removed using a filter wrench (Toyota special service tool). The larger of the two new O-rings replaces the existing O-ring on the screw-in housing. VERY CLOSE ATTENTION must be paid in placing the new O-ring - failure to properly seat the new O-ring could result in a massive oil leak! The filter itself is currently only available from Toyota.

the long answer is...put engine flush in oil, run for about 1 hour,switch off/remove key,then remove splash guard from under the engine (best done when car on ramps)then remove oil filler cap and drain plug on sump(oil pan).whilst draining into an empty can with the side cut out(drip tray) locate oil filter and punch a hole in the side of it with a screwdriver,and unscrew it.
Wipe oil onto the rubber seal of the new filter and screw onto carrier.hand tight only.
then replace sump plug washer(copper/fibre)and replace using a 6"long ring spanner and do up tight.
(max pressure of palm of hand)
put in about the same amount of oil that came out,replace oil filler cap and start engine.
check for any leaks,replace splash guard and lower car to level surface,turn off engine,leave for 60 secs,then dip for oil level and top up to midway on dipstick,
job done....
use 10/40 semi synthetic oil.

hello,sorry,i just read your comments,better to remove your sump guard,(be careful),to see the oil drain plug,

remove bottom cover under car the filter is at the bottom of the engine as is the drain plug for the sump ,very easy to do

Remove protective bottom plastic cover under engine to gain acces to oil pan plug at the back of oil pan. Remove oil pan plug, drain old oil; replace oil filter. Replace plug and fill with oil. Replace plastice guard ubder engine.
