I'm going to attempt to remove my oil pan today to replace the gasket, is there a how-to or guide anywhere on how to do it? It seems like there's a plate from the transmission blocking the last few bolts.

there is no gasket. You use toyota FIPG (form in place gasket) or high temp silicone adhesive.

just pick up a tube of the toyota black silicone. Real cheap, its what they use at the dealer for the oil pan gaskets.


yeah its a bit of a bitch getting it out, mostly cuz u have to remove that support with TWO mounts on it. but once thats out, you can pop out that little plate and go to town.


oh and a little word of advice when you are putting it back together... dont over tighten those oil pan bolts! they are real easy to over tighten and snap the heads off! and thats a pain in the aaassss.

The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed?
