Ok so ive got an ecotech 1.8 vectra engine and need to change the sump on it, BUT not been able to have a look at it yet as too far away but does anyone now what bolts hold the sump in place?

Also am I right in thinking im gunna need to remove the lambda sensor and exhaust from the manifold to swap it over?

Torx bolts.. Cant remember the size, they are quite small though and there are bloody loads of them..

Make sure you've got some decent sealant to re-seal it with.. ThreeBond is the best.

E10 I think and you'll need the manifold out of the way.

Don't need to remove the sensor from the exhaust - you can unplug it from the car instead.
