my daughter has a 96 Pontiac grand am 4cyl and the filter is on the motor behind the radiator kind of low. you need to get at it from under the car.

The oil filter is BEHIND the engine, on the passenger side, right above the braided steel exhaust line..use a deflector when removing the oil filter, as engineers did not care that the oil filter leaks onto the exhaust, and makes smoke long after the oil change...it is real easy to get to...a simple peice of cardboard on the pipe will prevent smoke...use it on a cool exhaust, not hot, or the paper will burn...if the engine is hot, use a peice of aluminum foil..it works great.Johnny
