I found taking the oil pick up off to get the old sump off best and then on the new one cut out a section in the baffle, only a small amount needed. Then re fit the oil pick up and the new one fits on easier with cut out to clear the oil pick up. Not a well though out job from fiats design and makes me appreciate Landrover defenders more. Haha Good luck.

etc etc....we got that....

Hi matt ,like video I took the sump off by cutting the exhaust just past the bend in the cat pipe and dropping the sump straight down ,then connecting the pipe with an inline connector, job done put the shrouds back .finished.

removing the exhaust is the easiest way to remove the sump but the bolts snapping in the manifold make it a really awkward job to get them out

What a total shitjob that is....I've had mine going rusty over the last 5yrs but just noticed today the sump is slightly wet so looks like I'll have to replace it in the coming weeks...I'm really NOT looking fwd to it

where is the solution? you didnt say how you did it

I'll chuck in my experience, recently done the lower arms so familiar with removing the bumper so went that route. Still a pig to get it past the exhaust, top tip from Stevanna_1888 on the oil strainer, just crack the back bolt and remove the front bolt and it'll swing round plenty to drop the sump off. Would be miles easier removing the exhaust but who's touching manifold bolts on a car where the oil pan has rusted through.

Did you get the sump back on without removing exhaust? Got this job to do on a 59 plate..removing manifold is something I want to avoid if possible

Hi Mate I need to do this on my daughter 500 diesel my question is will it work on the multijet ie getting it from the side as I don’t wish to touch the exhaust manifold looks like the studs are rusted, please let me know many thanks
