Im confused i looked at the haynes guide but it doesnt show a good picture of the drain plug. Can someone give me an idea what exactly im looking for. I know its come kind of plug that pulls out and when drained pushes back in but i really dont see anything like that under the car.

Bottom of radiator facing the engine on drivers side usually, has a flat flange. If not just disconnect the lower radiator hose even better.

No no lift up you car from the front and support it well now when your under the car you should see a black cover the goes form th drive to the passanger now the cover is hold by twn butterfly screws take the off when you do on the driver side look up and you should see the the radiator at the very bottom you see like a other butterfly plug twist it conterclock wise (carefull if your doing it make sure you get out when the whole water starts to come out even worse if you decide to take it off when it hot) Also don't for get that th malibu only only only only only uses antifrezse (the orange) not green ok
