But Don't torque those pan bolts too tight . 8 nM is spec. You can easily ruin your new gasket if you put on on. I just did that last weekend. Over torqued and damn thing still leaked. Had to look up spec on internet cause i cant find tranny stuff in fsm. Where the hell do you get tranny removal procedure and stuff for w124? At 8nM it still leaked at a few spots and then I tightened just a hair more and said hell with it. Hopefully it wont leak too much and i can get until next fluid change.
