[QUOTE="VWMAN1, post: 2447968, member: 839258"] Hi all, I have a 99 Passat with the infamous 1.8T. Long story short, there is a crack in the pan and I cant stop the leak for the life of me. I used so much JB Weld and silicone sealer like you have no idea. I have searched far and low for a DETAILED explanation on how to change it. Came across a couple dead links, and some replies which stated: "get a manual". If only I had the time and money to do so. Now, I bought a used oil pan. Cleaned the living hell out of it and also got some silicone gasket maker (since I was told the gaskets cause leaks after a couple months). All I am asking is: Can someone please spread the holiday cheer and help me with a detailed explanation on how to do this? Maybe even some pics? I know to lower the subframe, and to use a jack to hoist the motor up. But how?!?! Thanks again, Goinagainsttheflow.... (Except in traffic) [/QUOTE]
