- Detailed video of how to replace the oil pan on a 2000 Honda Odyssey. I cover everything from start to finish in detail so even someone not very mechanically inclined could handle this.
You can do this entire procedure at home with just a few tools and a set of ramps to pull the vehicle up on.
Reasons You May Need to Do This:
Oil leaking from damaged oil pan
Stripped oil drain bolt

Finally, someone showing how to do the repair, not a bunch of videos of people telling that they did the repair and not showing any of the procedure, ohhh man thats annoying, anyways thanks for the vid, have a 2005 honda oddessy, basically the same set up
Love hearing comments like this. Hopefully this video helped and thanks for taking the time to comment.
changing my oil pan tomorrow. Let's see how it goes. i feel more confident now after seeing your video😅 thanks for the vid
Awesome. Let us know how it turns out.
Thank you so much Clint Holland for such great instructional video. I replaced my 03 odyssey oil pan last night and couldn't have done it with out your help. Just saved my self couple hundred bucks.
Awesome. Great to hear.
Thanks for this. Tip for removing the engine mount is a must. There is very little room to remove the oil pan. Putting it in with Hondabond is messy too. I unbolted the exhaust from the header, unplugged the O2 sensors and dropped the whole exhaust going back (2 rubber hangers) vs trying to undo the cat converters. Wasn't worth fighting the MN rust. Took about 3 hrs laying on my back.
nstead of unscrewing the motor mount u can put a piece of wood along the front side of pan and whack with a hammer to remove
Thanks for the helpful video. As an additional tip, I loosened the front engine mount, too, on my 2002 Odyssey. It helped get the engine up just a little higher for removal of the old pan and installing the new. I also changed the rear motor mount while the exhaust was off. Couldn't have done it without this video. Thanks, again.
great how to video, O2 sensors you can also disconnect the wiring harness as it’s a lot easier than undoing the o2 sensor.
Thanks for the tip Basit.
It is really nice and detailed video but make sure you put that torque converter bolt back before put it's cover on
Thanks for making this awesome video. That's really helpful. I'm trying to remove the oil pan for the 2015 odyssey. Ca you tell me what size of the socket you used to remove O2 sensors?
Thanks!!! made it a bit easier to understand the missing steps I needed
I have a 2003 honda odyssey and I found out that honda didn't make an oil pan gasket, you need to use RTV gasket maker. I have to replace the RTV on mine too because I have a nasty oil leak there as well.
Great Video. I have a 2006 Odyssey....basically the same, but the differences are that the front exhaust pipe doesn't have the sensor on it (they are on the section above the flanges), and the motor doesn't have to be lifted to remove/replace the oil pan.
I did have a heck of a time with the exhaust nuts, even with the Blaster pre-soak...but it was OK. Need a 14mm 6-point socket (12-pt rounded the nuts, and I had to use an extractor tool). You should have mentioned the gaskets for the flanges....mine used a ring, instead of a gasket....though the gaskets are available though.
Thanks for making this video...it was quite helpful.
Awesome. Even though it wasn't the same, glad it helped.
How long did it take you? Also what did you use for gasket
Try getting the exhaust bolts out on a 15 year vehicle from up north. I promise it will not be a 1 hour job in the rust belt…
I can only imagine. I have had to work a couple cars in my life that came from coastal areas and everything took 5 times longer.
Where did you purchase the new oil pan and how much iam about to do mine thanks for the video…
I got the new one from RockAuto.com but I honestly don't remember how much at this point.
GREAT video....This video was just what i was looking for...Had to change one on a 04 Pilot...The motor mount was very helpful... Thanks for the help....
I thank you because your video seriously made the difference.
note: you don't need to remove the motor mount bolts for enough clearance, but you must raise the motor.
also, in seating the oil pan, mine required a bit of pressure from bolting it on to get it to sit perfectly and I recommend putting the transmission bolts in first to help align.
you could edit the video to be a bit shorter but it really solved all problems.
also I found it easier to remove the rear bolts of the cat convertor than the front.
Why did you need to remove the torque converter bolt? Why did you not replace it?
I have used gram filters for years and never had an issue and same with the Castrol oil
Just fyi as a note, my Honday parts guy says there is no pre-fabbed gasket for this. You just use the RTV like shown in the video. :)
Thanks for the excellent video. Did you replace the exhaust gaskets? Looking at the FSM it looks like there's 3 in total and it says "replace" which, I assume, means that if you remove the exhaust, then replace the gaskets.
I did not. I probably should have but I didn't have the FSM when I did this. Never had any issues with the exhaust though, maybe I got lucky.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching u put that make a seal on. I was thinking this as u made that comment 🤣
Maybe I should make some ASMR videos of me just putting gasket seal on.
Thank you for making this
Thank you very much for the video, it is very informative and enlightens me to know what my friend will be up against. Thank you.
Hi. Do i need to wait 1 hour for honda bond as well ? Great video well explained.
A lot of mechanics recommend the 1 hour wait and it's probably a good idea but the instructions only call for 1 minute of wait. If you can, wait the 1 hour. If not, at least try to wait an hour before you refill your engine with oil.
I agree, Hondabond is the ONLY sealant recommended for this, I'm sure this Permatex product is fine, and I use their stuff everywhere, but I would not take a chance on this job. Once you use the Honda product, you will want to use it on other critical applications.
+Al S I am sure the Hondabond is great and I certainly am not going to argue that the Permatex is better but I have been using Permatex products for over 20 years and never had them fail. They are tested to meet OEM specifications and they were around a long time before Honda or Hondabond even existed. I doubt you will go wrong using either produce and I certainly never have. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the great video and demonstrating the steps.
Absolutely. Glad it helped. I love doing it.
Excellent video. Gives me confidence to attempt oil pump removal (includes the oil pan removal) to get to the timing idler pulley block thread. Doing a timing belt change on my 2003 Odyssey, I stripped the timing idler pulley block thread, torqueing to spec 33 ft./lb. Go figure. The bolt goes first through the oil pump corpus before threading into the block. Another idea I have is to attempt installing a Heli coil without removing the oil pump. But that will require tapping thread into the oil pump hole and I am not sure both holes' centers are on the same line for the purpose of tapping thread.
Wow. Sounds like you were having one of those days. I just had a weekend where everything I touched went horribly wrong and it has me scared to do anything for a while. I hate when I make things worse because I get frustrated. Good luck man.
Thanks! Successfully removed oil pan, pump etc. Installed a time sert insert to fix the thread issue. Van is back together and running fine. No oil leaks so far! The tip with raising the engine for the oil pan install was very useful.
@@seahawks1912 Awesome. Glad to hear that it helped.
Hey will this work on a 2012 Honda Odyssey
Not completely. Honda changed the Odyssey in 2011 so the procedure, while similar, is not the same.
You have a list of what tools you used? I'm going to do it on my 98 honda accord v6
Was it leaking . ? Because mine is leaking and it looks like oil is coming out of the torque converter cover plate .I am hoping it will be the oil pan gasket rather than the main rear seal .you know what I mean
Mine wasn't leaking but the drain plug had been stripped out and repaired so many times that the recommendation was to replace the oil pan.
clint don't use the plastic rhino ramps. just google rhino ramp failures or something like that and you will be scared to use them. better to jack your car from the front and put the tires on 2 pieces of 2x12 bolted together, make it really wide and screw 2x4 at both ends to chock the wheels. just google diy car ramps and wood cribbing. wood has a high strength, they use it to make cribbing for monster equipment that weigh probably tens of thousands of pounds
Thanks for sharing man. From now on, jack stands only. That's crazy scary.
Clint Holland Yeah good thing I lost my Rhino ramps, I was doing the same thing as you. I actually trust wood planks under the tires more than jack stands, jack stands can fail too. If I have to use jack stands or any support I always use my rule of backups. put a jack on the front towing hook but take most of the weight off the jack to not strain it and also put wood plank under the tires. If I have to take tires off I would use jack stands, the jack and put the wheels under the corners so I have 2 backups. Your life is not replaceable. I never rely on just 1 thing.
eksine Id rather park on the curb...100℅ safe
Very helpful vedio , Thank you so much.
Thanks for video and tips 😀
Thanks for watching. Hope the video helped.
Verry nice explained video.
Thanks. Hope the video helped.
Sure did bt i realized its leaking from the little part where the oil filter screws on. Oil filter housing gasket all that work for free it wuz my cousins car. Bt thanks great learning expirience.
Did you have any problems re-installing the oil pan w/o disturbing your liquid gasket streams? Any long term leaks? I might have missed but why were you replacing the oil pan.
Texas Pipeliner I did a little. Let the gasket dry a little so it isn't so easy to distrurb. That was my technique.
thanks! yet I thought you should mention year and model right?
It's in the video's description. I don't usually mention it because the procedure is usually the same for many different years.
Very helpful video. Why did you get a new oil pan? Was the leak actually in the oil pan and not the liquid gasket seal? Thanks again
I got one because the drain plug had been stripped, twice. It was stripped and repaired but the 2nd time it stripped, I couldn't repair it.
Hi, why did not you use the original oil pan? What was the reason you changed the oil pan for a new one? My oil pan is dripping, is it necessary to replace it with a new one? Thanks for your video, it helps me a lot.
I replaced this one because the drain bolt had been stripped out twice. I could have tapped it again and fixed it but figured it was time to just replace it.
9/16 = 14 MM . I hate when people use standard tools on a import vehicles, they usually round off the bolts and you end up usually having to replacing them . Always use the right tool for the job ...
Good point. I added an annotation to hopefully prevent other's from making my mistake.
@@ClintHolland I am going to do this procedure and was about to say the same. All Honda bolts are in mm as far as I can tell and if you use imperial measurements, you're going to strip something. I didn't see an annotation on the video so maybe I missed it, but it's always good to check.
Just curious. Why not just clean the old oil pan and redo the make a gasket?
The problem wasn't with the gasket in this case but rather the oil drain plug had been stripped out of the pan, twice. It had been repaired both times but we are at a point where we couldn't repair it again and it just made sense to replace.
Awesome vids. Would you have any abs motor installs on the 3.0L they have for Honda Accord 6th Gen?
Excellent video! Thanks a lot! Muchas gracias!
THANKS ALOT GREAT VIDEO
Cool. Glad it helped.
Is that too much gasket maker on the pan at lower side of the screen, around 8:30? I noticed it's thicker than what you were putting on at the start of putting the gasket maker on. I'm a little worried about putting it on too thick and the sealant breaking off and clogging up the oil pickup. Great video though, Sir.
+TassieLorenzo I hope not. It's been running fine without any problem since then so hopefully I did it right.
Clint Holland Thanks very much for your reply Clint! That makes me feel better about giving it a try! :)
This video is pretty interesting. I saw from the diagram that there is no gasket, Your video shows it too. I guess you have to extra careful not to over torque it otherwise you ruin the engine
Absolutely. Make sure you use a torque wrench and that you torque them in the order I show in the video.
Amazing job.
Every Fram oil filter I've ever cut open after an oil change. They've all stayed in-tact. I use any filter I get on sale.
Hi friend, I have a Honda Odyssey 2002 but I could not take off the carter. I would like to know how I can do it? And for that I have to remove the 3 screws of the engine mount and lift it, thanks for your contribution
Not sure what you mean by taking off the carter.
very good your video but I have a question I do not have a board other than silicone
I am not sure I understand your question. You don't have a board?
I was looking and it seemed like yes and call new yerse auto part but they told me that there is not there because this car does not carry and bi I'm sure
Would you say this would be a good time to replace the lower motor mount?
+armydlguy Arguably there is never a good time to replace that but this is as good as any.
my cat is welded to the rest of the sysyem and doest bolt up like yours, will i have to drop the whole system after i disconnect the o2 sensors
What year is yours?
I have a 2009 Odyssey, will I have this issue as well?
@@marceloproano2537 I don't have the manual for the 2009 so I really don't know but from what I can see online, it seems like you may.
Clint Holland where can I get the specs to find how much to torque the bots to the pan? Asking in case you have a site that I can quickly get to. Thanks.
@@marceloproano2537 I always buy a Haynes or Chilton manual for my vehicles or I use this site. Unfortunately I don't have the one for the 2009. Please note that none of these are free. www.eautorepair.net/Marketing/Default.asp
you get to comments when work on, rather than talk after the work!
Cool video. Why not just say 8 foot lbs of torque though? There is a possibility some people might not catch that small but very important detail and then realize that the loud crack was not in fact the torque wrench but the bolt breaking off in the bottom of the engine.... hypothetically of course. Definitely asking for a friend
I understand and get it. I reported the torque in the measurement provided by the official Honda repair manual. I didn't come up with these numbers but obviously Honda didn't choose 8lbs for some reason.
Everywhere I have looked shows 9 in lbs for the oil pan bolts. Where did you find 104 in lbs? That is a big difference, I don't want to break something. If it is 9 in lbs, you may want to edit your video because someone may break their engine.
Duane Ekedal You probably mean 9 ft lbs. Which is about 104 in lbs. 9 in lbs wouldnt even be finger tight.
that makes sense :-) thanks for the quick response. You're right by the way. Looks like I need another tool, mine is ft lbs.
this is forever ago but you may've seen 9ft lbs since 104 inch lbs converts to roughly 9ft lbs. this is just an assumption without looking further into it. Being that its aluminum you don't want to put a lot of torq on these so these numbers do make sense.
Outstanding!
upon finishing this project I glazed over the 104 INCH pounds of torque and added 2 bolt heads to my name.
Ouch. Wish I could say I hadn't done that before but...
Is the same process on Honda odyssey 09?
That is what I have. This video gives me confidence that I can do it myself.
hey clint why did you replace the oil pan?
The oil pan bolt had stripped out and already been fixed once. Couldn't fix it a second time, or let me rephrase, it could have been fixed but I figured it was time to start new.
So, three tips.
1. Those are not 9/16 bolts. They're 14 millimeters. Use the correct size sockets people. You'll save your bolts and yourselves a lot of headache.
2. DO NOT remove the motor mount bolts completely. Back then out enough to raise the engine without removing them completely. It'll keep them lined up through the entire job.
3. For the love of God, put anti-seize on those exhaust bolts. The next guy to take them out will thank you.
And I don't don't using a 3/8 ratchet on the exhaust or the motor mount bolts. Use a 1/2; don't break your tools before you even get started.
Thanks much
Glad it helped and thanks for watching.
9/16 , literally?
People use a good torque wrench or don't bother using one, don't ask me how i know.
9/16" bolts on a Honda? Dude, seriously?
Felpro 0s30954t oil pan gasket. My god, man, is this the first day you've worked on a car?
@@chuklee7523 Yep. Close enough for government work. Oh and btw, it worked.
