Hi guys,
I have a leakage from the oil heat exchanger. I know that there is seal gasket, which could be damaged and this cause the problem. I ordered the new gasket. My question is that, how difficult is the replacement? I have only jack, and jack stands. As I see, I only remove the 6 torx screw and I can remove the cooler side of the filter housing, replace the new gasket, and that’s all? Or I will have to remove more parts? And how much oil and coolant will I “lose” while the replacement? I changed the oil one week ago...of course I found the leakage after it...

and finally you can take whole oil-filling&cooler part away. In my car leak was between oil and coolant "metal against metal" openings. No gasket between that.
