Oil pan removal and replacement

Good morning sir, from upstate ny and pa....salt and rust vill.


Question question question?

Are there any videos out there about removing or replacing your oil pan?


2004 impreza ts 2.5 4cl, 5spd

My oil pan is rusted and leaking from the front bottom. I have the replacement coming Monday I have the cork gasket, oil filter and oil, socket set, ramps, and jack all ready to go.

I want to make a short how to video for the forum. Can you guys help with do's and donts ?

I've never did this before but have watched 3 videos online. Only one was for an impreza and they all mentioned loosening mounts and jacking the engine up an inch.

I feel comfortable doing this if it's as simple as some threads make it seem but I'm not a mechanic. I want to take good pics or video to help others so can you just give me tips to look out for and things to avoid doing. P.S money is a big issue that's why I haven't paid a shop and are hoping this one is a DIY.


Thank you in advance.
