You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 12101-0V010 fits your vehicle.

Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Set the parking brake and block the rear wheels. Raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the two plastic splash shields under the engine, if equipped. Drain the engine oil and remove the oil filter. Remove the oil dipstick. Remove the bolts and detach the oil pan. If it's stuck, pry it loose very carefully with a small screwdriver or putty knife. Don't damage the mating surfaces of the pan and block them, or oil leaks could develop. Use a scraper to remove all traces of old sealant from the block and oil pan. Clean the mating surfaces with brake system cleaner. Make sure the threaded bolt holes in the block are clean. Check the oil pan flange for distortion, particularly around the bolt holes. Remove any nicks or burrs as necessary. Inspect the oil pump pick-up tube thoroughly for cracks and a blocked strainer. If the pickup was removed, clean it thoroughly and install it now, using a new gasket. Tighten the nuts and bolts to the torque. Apply a 3/16-inch-wide bead of RTV sealant to the mating surface of the oil pan. Carefully position the oil pan on the engine block and install the oil pan-to-engine block bolts loosely. Working from the center out, tighten the oil pan-to-engine block bolts to the torque in three or four steps. The remainder of installation is the reverse of removal. Be sure to wait at least one hour before adding oil to allow the sealant to properly cure. Run the engine and check for oil pressure and leaks.

Before proceeding to the removal of the oil pan the job requires you to take off the cable of the negative terminal of your car battery , engage the parking brake and jack up the rear wheels of your automobile . Lift the front of the vehicle and put it on jack stands securely. On this subassembly, if available, take off the two plastic splash shields located under the engine, drain the engine oil, and thereafter, dismantle the oil filter as well as the oil dipstick. Unbolt the oil pan and ensure that if it is tightly fixed then other thin tools like a screwdriver and putty knife can be used to pry off the oil pan without compromising on the mating surfaces in a way that they will develop leaks. For installation, scrape out all the existing sealer from the block and oil pan with a scraper and wipe the mating surface with brake system cleaner. Make sure that the holes on the block for the threaded bolts are smooth and the oil pan flange will not have any warp; if there is, the sharp edges should be smoothened. Check the oil pump pick-up tube assembly on the shop floor for cracks and a blocked strainer and if removed, clean it before re-installation using a new gasket, and tighten the pick-up tube nuts and bolts as specified. Squash an RTV sealant with approximately 3/16-inch thickness on the joining surface of the oil pan, adhere to the producer's instructions for assembling and setting times. Set the oil pan onto the engine block and put the bolts in, just loosely, and then tighten them to the middle from the outside. The rest of the installation process goes in the reverse order to the removal process; however, oil should not be introduced for at least an hour to allow the sealant to harden. Last but not the least, start the engine and observe the oil pressure and any kind leaks.

The manufacturer recommends removing the engine and transaxle assembly to perform this procedure. To begin, drain the engine oil. Next, remove the bolts and nuts securing Oil Pan No. 2 to the larger cast aluminum oil pan. If it is stuck, tap it loose with a rubber-tipped mallet or carefully cut the sealant with a putty knife and hammer. Remove the oil pump pickup tube/strainer assembly and then the bolts and nuts securing oil pan No. 1 to the engine block. Carefully pry the oil pan loose from the engine block, being cautious to only pry in the designated areas. Remove the O-rings from the bottom of the engine block and, if necessary, the sheet metal baffle plate. For installation, first install the baffle plate if it was removed. Clean the mating surfaces of the block and oil pan and ensure the threaded holes in the block are clean. Install new O-rings on the block and check the flange of the steel oil pan for distortion. Flatten and restore the gasket surface if needed. Inspect and clean the strainer before installing it with a new gasket. Apply RTV sealant to the upper oil pan flange and position the pan onto the block, tightening the fasteners in several steps. Apply RTV sealant to the flange of the No. 2 oil pan, position it on the upper oil pan, and install the bolts. The remainder of the installation is the reverse of removal. Add oil, install a new filter, run the engine, and check for leaks.

To drain the engine oil and remove the oil filter:Drain the engine oil.Remove the oil filter.Remove the oil dipstick.

Apply RTV sealant to the upper oil pan flange and position the pan onto the block, tightening the fasteners in several steps.

Ensure the threaded holes in the block are clean, and install new O-rings to the block, holding them in place with clean grease if required.

Remove the oil pump strainer/pickup.
