i have a 02 type s rsx what are the tools used for installing an oil pan?

just a socket wrench, i cant remember if it was 12 or 14 or both, and i think you need to remove the clutch sheild or somehting like that also, it only takes a few minutes, better yet you should search dude im sure theirs a DIY on this, prbly spaz or someones written one up

also our oil pan doesnt have a gasekt so before u start make sure you go to the dealer and pick up the liquid gasket and spread, and if u need an oil pan baffle, i have one brand new from teh dealer still in the packaging i can sell you

Have you been able to install the pan without dropping the subframe?

does pepboys seal hondabond>?

 

[Laborchet]

No, only honda sells hondabond, Pepboys sells the permatex stuff tho, but not as good as hondabond IMO

Have you been able to install the pan without dropping the subframe?

I was able to swap pans by letting the subframe hang by the knuckles (just removed the sway bar bolts and the 4 big bolts). it was a TIGHT squeeze though.

I dnt now about the whole subframe thing, i changed my oilpan with the engine out the car and on the lift,which is probably why it was so easy for me ha, lucked out
