12mm if I'm not mistaken
The check engine light has nothing to do with an oil change. The check engine light is reset with a scan tool after repairing the failure that caused it.
I do not know if the 2009 vibe has the same location as the 2004, but on my 2004 vibe the oil filter is between the bumper and the engine, but is above the oil pan. It is visible from both above and below and will likely be a white or blue cannister about the width of a soda can but somewhat shorter.
Oil filetr on this 2.4 engine is underneth by the middle of engine.
4 and 1/2 or 4 and 3/4 qt
4 quarts.
Counter clock wise to loosen.
