2012 35is oil filter housing weep
Hi all, just got a 2012 35is, has had recent plugs/coil packs, otherwise needs lots of cleanup from previous owner. Looking through google searches on common issues I saw the filter housing gasket failures. Mine appears to have this- wet underneath the housing everywhere. I did a search here and haven't found a complete how to or more importantly parts list/BOM. I see some pkgs through vendors including gaskets, intake gaskets, bolts, etc. I'm coming from a 2007 cayman, so I've dealt with their common issues, and figure there is a similar group of things to look for on this car. Top operates well and looks very tight/clean so that's good. 65k miles, brakes are done, new battery, and I plan on flushing Coolant, brake fluid, but want to tackle this filter housing first. I watched a YouTube video from FCP Euro doing the job and he replaced the throttle body donut as well. Is this a decent video to use for the job? It's dead of winter here so a good time to tackle the job. Thanks
