Have to place car on service ramps or up on a hoist. Finding the drain plug is not that hard ..but the oil filter is enclosed within a canister. that has a large nut (used to remove canister) part of the canisters housing.
So once you remove the filters canister housing from engine case you must remove the filter from within the canister
Major problem is making sure not to damage the canisters o ring gasket/seal and to align it correctly before mounting.....
with all the trouble this style canisters caused its a wonder they brought them back again
It is more messy than a standard autos oil filter to change too...
sorry could not locate any photos to refer you to
Not even the shop manual..
good luck.......... Monte

The 2001 Toyota Corolla engine oil capacity is 4.5 quarts of motor oil. For quarts of oil will go into the engine and one half quart of oil will be in the oil filter.
well simply for any car you can tell by checking the oil or the oil cap. if you see white residue on the cap or on the dipstick you got water in the oil. if you also change the oil you can see water in it. that is simply the only ways you can know. good look with your alero
Many lube shops are now using 5 W30. 10 W30 still works well too. Just ask the folks at your oil change shop what they recommend.

A cause for high oil pressure could be related to the type of oil that is being used in the vehicle. Thicker based oils such as 10w40 and higher could cause high oil pressure.

All Saturn engines require 5 quarts for a full oil change.
