Hey everyone,

I've got a lovely oil leak coming from the oil level sender on the 420SEL. It seems that this is a fairly common leak. I was just curious as to how difficult this is?

I know I've got to drop the oil pan and get up in there to replace the seal.

Is there anything else I should replace while I've got the pan off?

Parts Needed:
Oil Level Sender Seal 0179975748
Oil Level Sender Seal 0179975848
Lower Pan Seal 1160140522

Should the sender itself be replaced as well?

-Thanks
