Does anyone have a picture of where the block heater would be located on a 2016 passenger Metris model?

I tried to figure that out for my 2016 too but never could find a definitive answer. I ended up putting a silicone heater pad on the oil pan, which is easy to do and it works good.

I've often wondered about block heater options given the vast amount of engine oil. Might want to look for a heated dipstick- they work really well. Whatever makes it so I don't have to mess with that GIANT plastic belly pan. but, the van does seem to start and run well in the cold....

I paid $500 to the stealer to install a block heater. I'll see if I can find the location by following the cord.

I'll just wait till the borescope has arrived. There's way too many wires.

I think its near the starter. There should be two plugs near each other. One larger than the other. The larger one would be higher up. The small one is probably the drain and the other is the plug for the heater.
