there are two bolt between the engine and tranny. the crank has to be turned just so in order to get to the bolts easier.

Ok, at least two people asked this question: WHY DID YOU TURN THE CRANK SHAFT?
I'm assuming there must be a 'hidden' bolt... but you bother to clarify... the video is helpful but since you leave details out it still leaves folks with questions... can you please answer - is there a bolt "inside" the housing near the motor mounts? I have taken three motor mount bolts off and all the 10mm hex muts from the perimeter but pan will not come off...
Can you explain? thanks,

@jylon42990400 Turn it counter clock wise. Just stripped mine turning it clockwise. fml.

hello,
I just finished changing out my oil pan. My car is also a 1999 Jetta TDI. The small bolts holding up the oil pan also has a 5mm socket hex in the center of it. So with a long 5 mm hex wrench, I was able to loosen these bolts messing with anything else.
It would probably be worth while to order a few extra bolts from the dealer before you start. I wish I had.

The car has 4x4 status and your wife is still breaking oil pans lol

@triple6studio Jealous that I don't know much about cars and you seem to save yourself a lot of money knowing this shit
also when you drained the oil pan, you turned the plug clock wise right?

Do you know if I used an OEM gasket shoul I used the silicone gasket also or is not needed? Thanks a lot for replying me on my first question!!

it will not hurt to use silicone on both sides of a OEM gasket it will also make installation easier but on this model jetta it never came with one it just had silicone so its your call
