I'm having oil pressure issues and am thinking about doing the oil pump and oil pan. The Bentley manual I have doesn't cover the iX, so I'm wondering:
1) is the job any different from the way it's described in Bentley (aside from the lack of a gasket)?
2) why do threads on here seem to say that my options are to lift the engine or drop the subframe, when Bentley seems to say that I can just remove the steering rack? (but it's not completely clear, and I'm a noob)
3) is this realistically a two-person job, or would I only occasionally need a helper?
TIA. I'm also wondering if I should tackle the oil filter housing, which I also want to do, at the same time or if it doesn't make a difference.
