you can do it- and it is a good thing to know how to do- but it is very dangerous because you have to jack the car up, then put it on jack stands, then crawl underneath it while it's up in the air- please- get some experience fixing easy things first- get familiar with tools and getting dirty- become a helper in a car shop- don't try an oil change until you have someone smart SHOW you how to do it, and help you do it yourself- and never do one at home, alone- raising and lowering the car takes the proper equipment and is SO dangerous- make a mistake, and it can kill you
