oil sump sealing
oil sump sealing
apart from using water still but i cant find that leak yet :crying:
but thats not my question lol
i have quite a leak coming from the oil sump.
i did seal using what i thought was adequate for the job but its slowly worked itself a small hole somewhere.
i thought that a cork or paper gasket would be better but toyota dont sell these and the sealent that they sell is apparently £50 which for obvious reasons i arent paying.
so what sealent would be suitable or should i get a piece of cork and cut it to shape???
ok so my car is now fixed

Was told it can take the heat so should be ok.
But it's just slowly getting worse.
Doesn't help that there is a few sump bolts missing but bizzarely it's not leaking from them parts anyway
I used flange sealent mate.
