Thanks. The 1A Auto version had the guy removing almost the entire exhaust pipe. I was like "Hell no, I'm not taking that whole thing off just to get the oil pan out."
@@callofdutysoviet Yeah, unfortunately I ended up having to take the exhaust pipe off anyway because some of the bolts were stuck too tight to get off with a wrench and I couldn't get a straight shot at them with a breaker bar. I wasted several afternoons trying just to have to give up and do it the 1A Auto guy's way after all, and then just to add injury to insult, I misjudged the weight of the exhaust pipe when taking it out of the final hanger and dropped it on my face. I hope you have better luck. Lol.
nice to see someones sharing my pain....but I had to do it twice!! My gaska-cinch #1 did not seal at the back driver side and it leaked so I had to take it all down again and use Permatex gray (Oil resistant) RTV and I gooped it on pretty good: 2 parallel 1/8 beads and put it up wet. Just get the bolts threaded to barely squeeze RTV and then wait 1 hour and then torque down to 50 inch/lbs and wait 24 hours. Im not taking any chances this time. The 2nd go round I didnt have to drop the exhaust on a Cali 2.2 but I did need to remove the 3 exhauat nuts and pull the pipe down about 1 inch to allow the pan to drop down on passenger side and out. I ditched that foam anti-rattle piece and my car didnt have that one clamp off the inspection cover but the whole underside was caked in oil so....Good luck!
