What would be a reasonable cost to have an oil pan gasket replaced on a 97 Honda CRV?
3) I just spent 5 hours changing out the oil pan gasket on my ’84 Landcrusier. I have to say that it was a terrible experience. Pay the $100 dollars! It will be well worth it. I’ll give you a run down: 1. Drain the oil (easy) 2. pull the oil pan off (not so easy) 3. Clean the oil pan gasket area from the pan and the engine block (easy but time consuming) 4. Put sealant on the engine block and hold the gasket up to the block until it holds (not so easy) 5. Put sealant on the oil pan and mount (you’ll swear alot on this step) 6. Put all the bolts back in and torque to spec (not so easy unless you have an unrestricted path to the bolts) 7. Drink alcohol to unwind.
