You need a 9/16" box end wrench for the drain plug. The filter requires a special socket to remove the cap. I used to use a 1 1/4" open end wrench until I bought the socket from Snap-On.

I have a 2004 Saturn Ion with 108,214 miles on it. I change my oil every 3000 miles, and flush the trasmission out every 50000 miles.The only parts i had to replace so far were the breaks twice, and the wheel bearings. The cars still running great.
To change the oil pan gasket on a 2004 Saturn Ion, start by safely lifting and supporting the vehicle. Drain the engine oil and remove the oil pan by unscrewing the bolts that secure it to the engine block. Clean the mating surfaces thoroughly, then place the new gasket onto the oil pan and reattach it, ensuring a proper seal. Finally, refill the engine with oil and check for leaks after starting the engine.
In the oil pan
The bottom part of the engine is the oil pan. There will be a drain plug on it, remove drain plug and oil will come out; properly dispose of oil.
