The Quad 4, 2.3 litre engine dipstick is on top of the engine in the center. It is behind the valve cover and close to the master cylinder. Should have a blue, yellow or black metal ring on it for easy removal. Transmission dipsticks are usually red and have a thinner metal ring on them.
The V6 is easy to spot. It's located in the front of the engine. Should be right behind the radiator and fan area.
