Hello on a 09 4x4 Silverado oil pan removal do you need to take front deferential out to get pan out.

[@Claybaby1992]

@@JM-we8qxI know this is an old comment but you do in fact have to remove the front diff. I just did mine in my driveway 2 weeks ago and it was a hell of a job but it’s doable if you have the strength to press that diff back into place and hold it there while you bolt it back in.

[@myfalconry76]

Any time you got something apart it’s best to service other possible issues.

[@My65isblack]

I replaced my pick up tube ring yesterday. What a job Boi lol. Anyways the reason wdidi did this job cause my oil pressure was low i also had a tic and still have the tic and the low oil pressure is the same. Any ideas I triple check my work to make sure everything was install correctly

[@tuloko16]

Great video!! Here is a tip: whenever you do your oil pan gasket, always do your oil pickup tube o ring. Its literally 2 more bolts. I have seen many 4.8/5.3 “killed” because this 2$ o ring failing. Make sure you get the right one for your application.

I'm doing mine this weekend on the wife's 2008 Tahoe, but I'm dropping the oil pan to install a AFM oil deflector under the pressure relief valve but I'm gonna go ahead and replace the pressure relief valve too, plus go ahead and put a new oil pick up tube o ring in there. There is a GM service bulletin on the 07-14 Tahoe, Yukon, Escalade, Avalanche, Silverados etc.. with an oil consumption problem due to the PCV system on the driver side valve cover and they have a updated valve cover to replace the old style but that's only half the problem, the other half is to drop the oil pan and install the AFM oil deflector under the pressure relief valve so the oil is directed towards the bottom of the pan instead of getting picked up by the crankshaft and slinging it up on the cylinder walls mainly cylinder #1 and #7 burning a lot of oil and fouling the spark plugs out and cracking them. Came out with AFM for fuel economy purposes but it's nothing but CRAP!!!!

[@damienfauolo6613]

Was gonna ask if you have a video on yours but I noticed your comments 3months old lol anyways just bought a 14 Silverado with 77k miles you think I should look into buying that deflector ? Never heard of it also can you buy from somewhere like O’Reillys ?

[@jeanpierreremond2565]

My 07 avalanche was leaking oil, nothing really big, but enough to leave a few drops on my driveway (235k miles) I replaced the original gasket with a Felpro gasket to find out that now it is leaking really bad, I replaced the new felpro gasket a week after with a second new felpro gasket to find out now the leak got worse 😡😡😡 I torque each bolt to the proper torque specification using a digital torque wrench but nothing helps to stop the leaking oil pan. It just happens on the rear side where it connects to the flywheel case. My next move is try a new gasket, new bolts and a thin layer of oil resistance RTV on both sides of the gasket to help seal better 🤞🤞🤞

I seen in another video about a deflection shield you should put on the AFM valve. It was on a 5.3L engine. GM P/N 12639759. Is this something all engines for these year models need or just the 5.3L. I’m asking because I’m about to change my gasket on a 4.8L and want to take care of it all while I have it apart. What else is worth changing while you have the pan off?

About a year ago a “mechanic” replaced my o ring on the pick up tube and changed the oil pan gasket and just last week I saw a few oil spots I got under the truck and saw some of not all bolts that hold the oil pan gasket had oil on them could it be that they aren’t tightened up or did the place the oil pan gasket wrong

yo bro when you bolted back up the rack and pinion it didnt cause any alignment issues ??? like do i need a alignment done

[@JaboTheMechanic]

If it's an older model then you don't need to remove it. But if it's a newer one yes you have to unbolt it

[@MOBBINOutdoors]

awesome video, surprised you didn't suggest replacing the pick up tube o ring.

[@mrogersgmt800]

Great video! Question when re intalling the o ring pick up tube to the oil pump. Do you force it in a bit or let the 10mm bolt do its job and let it tighten up on its own?

[@JaboTheMechanic]

No you need to make sure it's seated in before bolted. Rock it back and forth til it smoothly goes in with a little resistance. Use oil for easy seating

[@chazcave1831]

Great video man I just recently changed out my cam and put a BTR one where you don’t have to upgrade the converter. Put new springs, rods, lifters oil pan and gasket (not the green one as I’ve read) and I still have low oil pressure. Prior to messing with it it had just about 22 warm and about 38 or so on the highway. Now it’s sitting at about 10 or 15. If you have any advice on what to try or do different I’d appreciate it. Been following pretty much everyone else the whole time and have come up short. This is my first time building anything and I’ve done good with everything else just can’t get the oil pressure under control

Omg I just did this the other day and didn't realize I had to put RTV in those crevices. I really dont feel like pulling all of that apart 🤦🏾 will it leak bad if don't?

[@JaboTheMechanic]

Yes it will

[@myfalconry76]

Oil pan bolts is 108 inch lbs more oregano less 8 foot lbs. especially on the two long back ones. They screw into the rear splash plate that holds the rear main seal. If you over torque them you will pull that splash shield down misaligning the rear main seal causing another leak. It may not happen right then but with driving bumps and vibration it is going to happen if you over torque the rear long oil pan bolts. I would say using the impact you put at least 20 fibs on them wich is slightly over double the manufacturer specified torque value.

[@shadowopsairman1583]

Make sure to loosen steering rack and then remove the right bolt and nut to allow pan clearance. 22mm for those. Torque those bolts to 80 ft lbs, cross member horizontal bolts to 70 ft lbs-vertical bolts to 40-45.

What type silcone was that

[@Pragmatist1st]

I used red RTV on my oil pan on an LS rebuild. After more reading, I have come to believe I probably should have used black. Couple questions for your opinion: (1) Should I change the RTV color to black? Also, the [Fel-Pro] oil pan gasket I used is brand new other than being installed. The engine is still sitting on the stand "dry" other than assembly lube on necessary components. (2) If changing the RTV color is necessary, can I clean off the red RTV, and reinstall using black RTV with the existing new gasket? Or should I replace the oil pan gasket as well?

The 2 15 mm go in second to align oil pan. Right after you snug your first two 10 mm

They are not to align it but it helps they are to prevent the possible misalignment of the rear main seal by over torquing the long 10mm bolts. Wich will happen anyway if you go double the manufacturer torque specs as this guy did.
