Did you replace the oil pan gasket yourself?? If so was it hard???

It was quite abit of work. You have to disconnect the motor mounts and lift the engine up as well as remove the y exhaust pipe. I didn't enjoy it to say the least!!!!

If you take it to the dealer they will want around 340.00 to do the job. I did get a quote and decided to do it myself. Apparently it is common for the 2.5 to leak with original factory gaskets....there are improved gaskets that hold up much better...

Bob
