Very basic advice. V6 dipstick under passenger seat. Lift seat and it is towards the front on the gear stick side. Yellow handle, so easy to spot. Oil filler under the drivers seat.

To lift seat, first remove the plastic console tray in the centre. Two little plastic wheel nuts. One in the large tray at the back and one under the ashtray. Tray then lifts off. Three metal clips at each side under the seat edge, unclip these and flip seat back. This is the same as the diesel so I am sure someone will post clearer instructions.

Coolant tank under bonnet, passenger side again, right at the back. From memory, windscreen washer bottle same side further forward. Its snowing and I am not going out to check. :roll:
