One engine oil filter, and two trans oil filters. The engine filter is on the right front of the engine. The trans filters are in the trans pan.

If it truly is trans-related then I'd be inclined to do a trans service, changing oil and filter.
It's on the right side in the front of the engine. there is a black plastic hex nut. You can remove this with a 32mm socket and extension. It will be a cartridge type filter. Pretty straightforward.
Saturn Ions use a cartridge oil filter. Looking at the engine its to the right, there is a black plactic cylinder about three inches in dyamiter with a plastic bolt head on it. Just use an adjustable wench to remove the black cap. The filter will be attached and it just pops off and the new one will pop in.
The engine and trans go out the bottom at the same time.
The filter on this vehicle is on the inside of the fuel tank. This is the trend in a lot of newer vehicles.
