It's under the engine, at the back, but have you heard about the oil extractors, I have one and it has a tube that goes down the dipstick tube and draws the oil out and into a tank. A lot of the newer german cars are going that way, with a top mount oil filter, so the whole oil and filter change can be done top side. Mine is a manual unit with a 7.5 litre tank, $80. Simple enough even my daughter can change the oil

The original post is going on 5 years old. Just thought I'd point that out. Although I am intriged by this top mount oil filter/change concept.
