Title: AUQ Sump Removal Guide
Post by: Wayne on 17 May 2011, 23:14
Has anyone got a guide on on removing and refitting the sump on a AUQ please.

Replacing the oil pick up pipe the weekend with one of the engineers in work, but a guide would be handy.

Torque settings for the bolts as would be ace.

Thanks :smiley:

It is the same, no gasket, we have loctite sealant in work, which will do the same job.

Should be ok then bud....Just make sure you get all the bolts out....even the ones at the gearbox end as they are a real pain to get to..
