Take off engine cover on top of the engine. You will notice a plastic cylinder on the driver side of the engine with a screw cap on the top. Take off the cap and you will find the filter cartridge underneath. Measure the filter as there are two sizes available for the 3.3l engine. Good design in my opinion. Easy and cleaner to change.
