I have a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am, & the Change Oil light came on.?

[Michila Noell]

I have a pontiac grand am '99, i've never changed the oil myself, usually i went to my mothers husbands but we recently just moved to my husbands home town hours away from my family and my father in law said he'd do it for me in his garage where he does the other vehicles. he just said i need to get the oil and everything else. What oil do i get for my car? and do i need a Oil Filter? i'm so confused.


its pushing 130,000 miles if that means anything?

You need a filter and 5 quarts of oil. The filter number escapes me. What motor is in the car.
