Good advice on the inserts, I actually just got it back with the new pan in.
AND the dealr picked up the balance - leaving me with $0 due.
(after some polite conversation when I dropped it off this morning)

So Fumoto drain valve here I come.


I would like to hear how the fumoto works for you.
Mine is fine but I ordered the new one without the adapter and I noticed it without a shoulder on it.
I still have my old one in with the adapter and it has a shoulder on it.
Just curious to see if the shoulder has any merit or not,
Your old bolt has a shoulder on it.
Nothing serious just curious here.
Thanks
Steve

Question: Is the CRD the only one with the aluminum oil pan? Do the gassers have a more conventional steel one? If so, why the heck do we have a different oil pan in the first place..?



VW TDI's have aluminum pans too. Besides weight, they surpress noise and add strength to the block :lol:
