Blown oil pan gasketsmoaky 04-29-2005, 02:53 PM Yesterday I went to change my oil and discovered that I have a blown oil pan gasket. I had a mechanic check it, but he won't do the work because he's not familiar with it. I will be taking it to the dealership Monday. I was wondering if they will have to pull the engine to do the replacement. If anyone has had this done, what's it going to run me? Also, I want to put 18''x7.5's with a low profile tire on my car, and was wondering if they will tuck alright. It's a 2001 GP GT. kustomkid54 04-29-2005, 04:54 PM Yesterday I went to change my oil and discovered that I have a blown oil pan gasket.

I think anything over 17" is ugly. The motor has to be "raised" not removed. Cost, I would get that before the even look. Dealer may have different prices from city to cities. Good luck BIG-L 04-29-2005, 06:07 PM what's it going to run me? IIRC it's about 500 bucks.I had oil pan gasket and rear main seal replaced and it was almost 1200 bucks at that time it was under warranty. 98% of the cost is labor. Also, I want to put 18''x7.5's with a low profile tire on my car, and was wondering if they will tuck alright. It depends on the offset of the rim. The best size tire to keep the speedo correct would be a 245/45-18. smoaky 04-29-2005, 11:10 PM Thank you all for the info. Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
