How easy is it to change sump-pan gasket?

[ReVHard]

Hey EK9er bros, how's everythin goin?

I recently realized that my sump-pan is leaking oil and it seems to be coming from the gasket. could I change this gasket myself considering that I'm like a Level 1 (on a scale of 1 to 10) Ek9 mechanic? If I could, could someone tell me the procedure to change it?

I think I just need the new gasket and some gasket maker silicone......i think. let me know!

Thanks

Drain oil, unplug the o2 sensor, undo manifold bolts, remove manifold, remove bottom gearbox braces, undo sump bolts, remove sump. Installation is the reverse.

Don't swing on the sump bolts when re-tightening, you'll snap them.

Could not have said it better myself! Its not "difficult" but it does take time/patience/ and lots of shop towels
