WM 134819 Removing and installing crankshaft on V6 DFI engines

Installation of oil pan

Check the best-before date on the sealing compound.

The oil pan must be installed within 5 minutes of applying the silicone sealant.

The bead of sealant that is applied must not be thicker than the specified thickness because otherwise excess sealant can get into the oil pan and can block the strainer in the oil pump intake pipe.

Allow the sealant to dry for at least 30 minutes after installing the oil pan. Only then can engine oil be filled in.
