Does anyone know how difficult it is to remove the oil pan on a 2001 Audi A4 1.8t ?
thanks,

Im sure its nothing but a few screws and moving a few items out of the way. You will have to change the oil, Oil Filter and Oil Pan Gasket. What is the reason for the removal?

The oil warning has been coming on occassionally and we wanted to pull the pan to check for any blockage in the pickup. The manual states you need to remove the belts, pull the bumper and put the front end in service position. I can't see why you'll need to do all that, but I thought I'd ask those with more experience than me.

I have read around and cannot find a solid answer on what it takes to remove the gasket but it does seem to be a bit challenging in my opinion. Nothing you cant do just takes some time. They also said that you would need to support your engine with a engine jack of some kind. If you can get a Bentley manual it states it here on page 17-9. Hope this helps!

Cheers,
