1. Locate the oil pan. The oil pan is a large, metal pan located under the engine. It is usually black or silver in color.
2. Find the oil filter. The oil filter is a cylindrical-shaped object that is attached to the oil pan. It is usually black or silver in color and may have a Honda logo on it.
3. Remove any skid plates. If you see a large cover under your car that runs beneath both front doors and the oil filter is not visible, you may have a skid plate installed. You'll need to remove this plate with the correct tools to reveal the oil filter.
_In this particular instance, the oil filter for a 2009 Honda Accord V6 is located on the front side of the engine, next to the oil pan._
