Turn the crankshaft to gain access to the back sump bolts! You're a life saver. Great video.

This is a great video for oil pan removal from the B6 1.8T engines

Hey brian Working Hands Automotive here awesome video bro took me 2hrs to do but I got it done WOW if I haven't done the jobs you make vids on for some reason after I see your vids I end up doing the same job lol that's crazy

Im doing mine now and you need a 12 point 19mm socket to rotate the crank if anyone is looking for the size.

Thank you, Brian- I was about to rip all my hair out trying to remove the pump WITHOUT removing the sprocket! Impossible! I saw the tensioner and assumed the chain would just slip off - NOT the case! The sprocket looked press fit on the old pump, since it's all dark brown from age - I didn't think of looking at the new pump, since I got so frustrated! I'm working on a '02 VW Passat 1.8T - looks to be the same. Thank God for KZread! 👍👍

great job, I'll be waiting till you show how to change timing belt and oil pump on a 2001 acura 3.2 tl. I got a quote from dealership, I was going to let them do it, but when I asked to change crank sensor while they were in there, they wanted to charge an extra 450 plus part, I said no way. I'll be waiting and watching, keep up the good work and thanks for sharing your wealth of automotive knowledge with us

I did get my oil pump out without taking the sprocket off. I took the 3 bolts out, wedged the tensioner down and pulled down on the pickup tube and wiggled it down and to the right and the chain came right off. Just thought I'd throw that out there. Nice instructional video!!!

Man I’m doing this on my back in a garage and that’s why it’s taking me forever to get these bolts off only one I can’t get in the back left side I got all the other ones out easy but this side back one is kicking my ass! Hopefully I can get some progress tonight!

Hi,great video,can you tell me is there no gasket between the oil pump output gallery where it’s bolted to the cylinder block please. I’m going to be putting new oil pump on Passat 18t very soon. Many thanks

Great video, Audios a bit funny but no big deal. This should help me on my 2001

All done I fitted my new pump with the drive gear left attached as it was solid and I was using hand tools. Had to drop the air con unit to get the sump back in. No need to disconnect air con pipe work as some have suggested. I was working on the saloon version which is basically identical. Anything that got in the way of the sump was tie wrapped out of the way. i.e pipework and the air con unit. Tensioner for the pump chain was fine thank God.

Jay Bisky I am a flat rate automotive technician. I believe this job 4 to 5 hours book time I have to look it up.

I just tried to check my oil pick up today but realized I don’t have the necessary tools to do it, i was told y oil light would come on from a clogged pick up, I always do regular oil changes and just did one 1000 miles ago, I didn’t see any particles coming out when i drained the oil just now and the light hasn’t come on since, do you still think a clogged pick up could be an issue? Or is it more likely a sensor?

Are there any changes to make it at home conditions? I mean on the floor?

Is the 2009 Audi A4 2.0 turbo a similar project?

I know this is an old video but I have a ADR 1.8 non turbo and it's developed a knock most likely from the head it's an inconsistent knock that is very loud when cold and in any gear (automatic) D R P N however after it's warm it is quiet in N and P but makes the knocking in gear and on pull away for about 200Rpm then it's fine no knocking but there's a vibration at 2000rpm, is it low oil pressure a blockage maybe? Not getting any specific codes and there's no performance loss I'm completely out of ideas the timing chain was replaced as someone said it was that.

Would this work on a 2002 A4 3.0 quattro

Finally found a video with the oil pan like the one I have thank you so much for your time and consideration I was having a hard time getting the two hidden ones but after this video I feel like I have been well educated on it hopefully I will get it done and hopefully I have the back pump cause I was told that it's the one required for my car but honestly I do hope cause I got it online and I will admit that I got a good deal on the car needed an oil pump gave 300 for the car and 42.00 for the pump first Volkswagen I have owned lol and I will have to say probably be the last LoL no seriously I will have to see how it goes

Thank you so much, for this great write up/info and video. I have 2 questions; Do you recommend replacing the oil pump chain? And the does the oil pump have to be timed correctly? Like is there any timing marks or should I mark the old chain/sprocket? Seems like both answers are no it's not necessary, but would love the clarification. Also, THANK YOU FOR ADDING THE TORQUE SPECS for the important components. You are a step ahead of any other repair videos I have seen. Keep spreading your knowledge!

I would replace the chain if it has slack. But there is no alignment marks to deal with.

I found out that the 2 hidden bolts once slackened will not drop out until the rest of the sump bolts are out and the sump is freed of its seal to the crank case because they come up against a ridge on the fly wheel the movement of the sump as it is freed causes them to clear the ridge and they will drop out. I can see getting the sump back is going to be a proper c--t on my back whilst ensuring the silicone don't get messed up. Happy days thought I was done with this carry on years ago. Must get that bus pass form filled in. LOL! Who am I kidding , be handy though.

So a clogged oil pump will cause a loud rattle at start up?

Brian, hello good work as always what was the cause and symptomes that you changed the oil pump and is this acommon problem with those cars thankyou . cheeeeers

j georges The car had low oil pressure due to sludge buildup. Poor maintenance in cheap oil. I have seen it a few times not sure if it's super common.

After how many miles does the oil pump chain integrity start being a concern?

And if the light hasn’t come on since is it still good to drive?

How do you tighten the tension?

When changing your turbo, put a new oil supply line on it.

Hey. What's the name of the tool what you use on the crankshaft?

All bolts that get a degree of angle torque after torqued to spec are stretch bolts , stretch bolts in theory dont fully return to original spec when released however to say that the bolts will loose tension if stretched again is debatable

Hello hello . Your vide helped alot but i sm still stuck at the last 2 bolts for which i need to turn the frywheel.its really pain To get everything alligned. Wasnt expecting this from audi

far as turning the crank, if you remove the spark plugs it will be easier to rotate it.

Is it same for 1.9tdi? I spin flywheel and there is no half moon shaped cutout

Priming the oil pump is a good idea ?

Please please reply to my comment as my Audi A4 2005 have the same issue with low pressure oil light , but the light will appear when I accelerate above 80Km when I reduce the gas below 80 the light will disappear, please let me know it’s the low pressure sensor or the pick up ?

How do you replace the tensioner?

Decent mechanics , only down fall to much sealant on sump when that squishes out there will be a lot of sealant overhang , the worry is that a lot of sealant over hanging inside the engine , can and will block up the oil pick up and can eventually if not noticed off kill the engine

mwamba Williams I don’t think the pan will come out without dropping the frame.

I can't get the two hidden bolts at the back of the pan off. The insides are stripped. And my subframe is too far back to allow me to use a long extension like that. What would you recommend I do?

@HowtoAutomotive

Nik Chappee it’s hard to say without seeing. But it sounds like you may need to drop the frame.

I just read somewhere that that the oil pump chain tensioner on higher mileage cars can become brittle and break. I'm in the middle of doing this job pending parts tomorrow so this is all I need these things are on a timer at 175 k get shot of em. Had it for 4 years great car but just recently a money pit. Steering rack leak, clutch plate worn to disintegration no warning or slippage just fixed those went for a test drive and would you believe low oil pressure warning light on pick up blocked always changed oil regularly. Had my last Audi 11years. The love affair is over didn't owe me a penny till now but the way those faults developed one after another somebody has to be sticking pins in an model Audi soft toy just round the corner.

What if I don't have a car lift and I'm using a couple of jacks and jack stands

And how much was for all the parts?
