If you jack your car up on jack stands and look diretly under the ending you will see a large silver metal plate that protects the oil pan and surrounding objects. There will be a square cut out, Ide say about 4x6 in the center, a 17mm plug will be in there. Thats your drain plug, dont forget to loosen the oil filter and oil cap before draining.
