Where is oil filter located on 2001 cavalier?

I checked all over the right side of the lower engine block where its located on my 95 car. So they either moved the filter between 95 %26amp; 01 or they dont have a filter on here. I think they must've moved it. Its a 2.2 liter OHV; the same thing they been using in cavaliers.Where is oil filter located on 2001 cavalier?
Yep, you can't see it if you don't know where to look. From the passenger side of the car leaning in from the fender, follow the v- belt to the back of the engine bay, you can just see the butt of the filter if you look straight down along the engine, from the bottom of the car reaching up (right hand) just above of the drive shaft of the right wheel and just behind the power steeing fluid lines. You'll need a filter cap type wrench to remove the oil filter and a very small socket wrench to turn it. It is a very small filter with very little room to get it off with out spilling its contents down on you. Wait till you have to change the radiator hoses!!!!!!!!!!!





Good Luck...Where is oil filter located on 2001 cavalier?
uh dude you drive a chick car!?!?!?!


no wonder you can't find the filter!!!!


do you know where to put the gas?
check between the top ridge of the oil pan and the exhaust manifold
This is a hard one to reach. If you feel the back of the moter at the mid center you will find it. Reach in from the passenger side. Good luck!
Look where the dipstisk goes into the engine, there is a black cap about 3'; around right behind it. The filter is under that cap. Use a 1 1/4'; socket and slightly loosen the cap. If you keep loosening it with the socket on, it (the socket) will end up hitting the bottom of the intake manifold. It's a Fram #9018 oil filter and is usually $7 dollars or so at the parts store. Make sure that you put a little oil on the green o-ring that's around that cap before you put it back in so it doesn't seize up on you.
if its got an ecotech,its to the right of the intake inside a canister,11/4'; socket will reveal it.if its got a 2.2L,its on the back of the engine about 4'; above oil pan
