the filter is located right underneath the front of the vehicle and the drain plug is directly behind it on the back side of the oil pan. remove the drain plug first and then the filter.

On the 2011 Equinox 4 Cylinder, you can get at the filter from the top/front of the engine. If you look behind and to the left of the il dipstick, you will see a black plastic round piece with a 1 1/4" plastic"nut" on the top. The base is round and approx 3" in diameter. Use a 1 1/4" socket to remove this piece. When yu fully loosen the piece, pull it out and the filter will be attached. This is not the conventional spin on tye filter most are used to. It is a paper/fibrous material. Filter number is CH9018 from Fram.

The actual size of the plastic "nut" is 32 millimeters.
