You'd be correct. Make sure the old gasket is removed and the senders surface is free from old torn gasket, and then install the new one. Make sure to tighten bolts evenly by cycling them (hand tighten all bolts, kind of tighten all of em, then tighten all of them.) Use the torque specs and procedures from the actual manual for the actual best way but if you don't have that then this will work.
man i was worried about it but I have a cbfa 2010 Audi a3 with a metal oil pan and it now has a fist sized dent so will the uro oil pans fit I'm thinking it should since I have a first gen ea888
i have the same exact issue as you. if you don't mind sharing your miles, it may be a pattern with audi doing some suspicious stuff after they hit certain mileages or not serviced within certain time. -oil leak (timing chain cover, and oil pan leak, these leaks were causing electrical issues down the road for my headlight bulbs , DRL, window washer , etc.) -coolant leak (found out it was a water pump hose, repair shop said it was the water pump causing it then leaked into the thermostat. also found out that it may leak into the coolant solenoid control valve which may trigger some transmission faults in the future, get that looked at ASAP)
I had sold the 2 cars that I've done this to. One of them went to my little brother and he finds oil changes to be easy. I didn't have to worry about leaks, or giving him that plastic key, or anything like that. You thinking of making the conversion?
@@leenav9741 i am considering making the conversion for sure, i’d feel much more comfortable knowing my oil pan isn’t plastic 😂 right now my oil filler cap is actually leaking oil, so i need to find that gasket and replace it
@@armandodominguez9162 ph absolutely a must. Also, those gaskets usually come with oil filters. Mind as well do both and get a fresh oil change as well.
gonna be converting the oil pan on my 18’ A3 soon. did you use only silicone gasket maker or did you have or reuse a rubber gasket as well?
Hey man, my steel oil pan kit came with a gasket/o-ring that’s labeled “oil sender gasket” so do I put this in between my oil pan and oil sensor?

Is this a similar job for a 2015 Q3?
@@kylehartmann9134 I'm not entirely sure about that one
What’s the point of making a “how to” video if you don’t show “how to do it”?!? Lol
what size torx head to get out those oil pan bolts?
Hi I have the same issue need to replace my oil pan.
Can you give a alternate oil pan kits because the one that you use is out of stock
There is a steal one that I got for my wife's A3 but I don't remember where I got it. Maybe Rock auto
