Drove car 10,000 miles since new trans was put in also new timing belt,all of a sudden low oil light, low oil pressure, the oil pan was REPAIRED,oil was leaking from threads at drain spout. I can only guess,but I think they used silocone. I think the oil pump or screen is bad/blocked, the car has 185,000 miles on it I would like to drop the pan and check it out.any Ideas. Is there any special tools required for pan removal or oil pump removal that I should know about THANKS BRUNO

Thanks anyway, but we removed the oil pan and found the pick up tube was clogged . Apparently there is a plastic splash pan in the oil pan. that plastic pan melted and caused the blocked pick up tube. So , the changing of the oil pick up tube was the answer. I dont think I have ever changed an oil pan as easy as this one. There were 20 or so bolts, but no cross member or any other item in the way. EASY EASY EASY, NO PROBLEM
