That wasn't as bad a job as i thought it would be ,and i was surprised that RTV was factory used . It is nice to see the Mini is getting good care as you put a lot of time into it .

@GeorgeAusters 9 ай бұрын

Yeah really not too bad on this car!

@phillloyd6356 9 ай бұрын

Same as I used on ours. Let it fully harden for 24 hours before adding any oil - no more leaks from ours since the RTV was used

Glad to hear!

@FateIsSoul Ай бұрын

Thank you for sharing this how to! I was thinking of using a sealant along with a new gasket. Is that a good idea or better to just use sealant?

I always use a light smear of RTV on any paper gaskets and never had a problem.. Let the attacks begin 😂

No matter how much RTV you put on the paper gasket, it still leak.

I replaced 2 gaskets in one month and the second time the mechanic used one full tube of rtv.with paper gasket ,still weeping.

You definitely need some kind of a car lifter. I'm very sorry to see you struggling like that 😢

That's the plan man.. Gotta save up for the garage first though!

@joewestwood3474 Ай бұрын

Would this be the same with an r50 ?

@alpinevicemotorsports1805 6 ай бұрын

There is a technical service bulletin for this car that states that the gasket must not be used, because the oil pan becomes deformed after removal. That's why it leaked. I'm about to replace mine using liquid sealant as well.

I recommend using axle stands when working under the car. Those plastic ramps are not safe. I had one collapse under the weight of the car. Luckily, I was not under the car at the time.

Pretty sure these are rated to 3 tonnes per ramp.. They're not cheap chinese ones!

I did. I think my engine is the same as yours just like to confirm?

Next week i will make the gasket like you have shown in the video. I spent $900 replacing gaskets. Its a shame, Mini engineers can never make their cars perfect.
