First support the engine by placing a jack with a wide piece of wood under the sump. Don't jack directly on the sump , you must have the wood to increase the surface area . Jack it until the wood touches the sump. Then loosen the mounting bolts .
Hi there, what type of gasket do you use for your oil pan / sump gasket ? Is it a crock or rubber gasket ? Reason being that I used the crock gasket and the engine keeps on leaking oil. Please help me.
Hi . If your sump cover is flat on top then cork. If it has a groove use the rubber. In some cases use a small amount of high quality gasket maker on the outside of the rubber. Make sure all the screws are turning tight and are not stripped. Surfaces must be totally clean before attaching the sump.
Another option to lock the crank is to wedge a flat screw driver in the flywheel....there is either a cover plate that you need to remove (earlier models) or a gap between the oil sump and gearbox (later models) where you can do this. It's a small gap on the later models...so look carefully
Put the car in 5th gear and press down on the brakes, this will lock the crank. You'll need a friend to help though. I've done it by myself once by jamming a piece of wood between the seat and brake pedal

Thank you for Sharing!! Where could I get a Crank tool for holding the pulley while loosening & tightening. Thinking of making one
Thank You.
You can buy it and other tools at Adendorf Tools. Not to expensive
Or you can make your own,

I got the same problem - I'm loosing my mind
I have been changing my water pump for 3 times in a space of 3 months.... what could have been the cause? It just have bearing failure
Over tightening the timing belt. Dont over tighten and it will last for years
@@nurezdawood8363should the water pump last more than 3 Years or does it depend on mileage..
@@Katepearse it should last more than 3 years. Mine has lasted 8 years and mileage is 200'000 kms. Still going on well
@@Katepearse depends on make of the water pump coz mine was genuine but aftermarket should be good also
