Fffffffffffff. I was putting back on the sensor for the oil pan and the washer fell inside and got stuck. Do u guys think I should just pull some oil through and attempt to drain it out or take the pan off again? Only problem is that I already used that gasket sealer stuff so I might need to go buy a new oil pan gasket.

is the washer metal or rubber?
use one of those metal stick doo-dads and stick it in the drain bolt hole

All in favor to change turge's name into turd say I .

That was actually my nickname back in the day when CS:S was released. Some German guys who were in a match with us thought it said Turd instead of Turge. Needless to say my friends found this hilarious and started calling me that. lol

It's a metal one. I was trying to find a strong enough magnet that could grab it although I kind-of pushed it down further trying to use tweezers to get it out.

now let's race.



no problem. i prefer my e36 as a dd, it's just far more comfortable to drive in, more practical and economical.

So you're saying do it?

Take the sensor out and poke around with a telescopic magnet

i'm just saying, go with your gut feeling and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. if that's what you want to do, do it.

this. otherwise, remove pan. if you used the gasket sealer correctly, you shouldn't have any problems because you should have used gasket sealer on the pan and then put the gasket and not the other way around.

well i put sealer on both sides... whoops. new oil pan gasket it is then.

so what i did was... pan - sealer - gasket - sealer - motor

[ethrtyiS]

well it's not bad to put on both, but next time it needs getting done will be a huge pita. all you need is a nice thin layer with emphasis on the front and rear corners on the pan and lay down you composite gasket and you are all set.

[Balleristic31]

Lol I did the same exact thing and just replaced the gasket
