Just the same as most other cars really, just take the plastic nappy off and follow this:

Well quoting the link I gave you "Locate the drain plug on the bottom of the oil pan. It is normally towards the back of the engine."

The oil filter is the opposite side of the sump to the plug and there's also a couple of pics of where it is in the link.

I'm not trying to cause any offence or be inflammatory, but have you done this sort of thing before? Are you sure you are happy to tackle the job as the drain plug and filter are pretty basic/easy things to locate.  If something goes wrong you might end up wishing you hadn't attempted it.

You'll probably find the hardest part will be to remove the nappy without breaking any of the fixings.

Good luck anyway.

Thanks for the replies.
I have done oil and filter changes before. I am new to MR2  ownership so just checking that it is all standard stuff.
