  Q: How to replace the oil pan on Buick Rendezvous?

  A: Starting with Battery Cable disconnection and engine mount strut removal from the engine completes the sequence for Oil Pan replacement. Install the engine support fixture (J32594-B) then use it to safely lift and support the vehicle. First remove A/C Compressor mounting bolts and set the compressor aside while also separating the catalytic converter pipe from the engine right side Exhaust Manifold. Start by draining engine oil before taking out the frame assembly and oil level sensor wiring harness connection as well as the Starter motor. Detach the transaxle brace from its position on the Oil Pan and remove both the engine mount bracket and engine mount which operates from the Oil Pan. Install the torque wrench adapter (J39505) to remove all engine right side Oil Pan side bolts before removing the pan and the gasket. Prepare the gasket surface of both components by cleaning before you put the Oil Pan Gasket together with the Oil Pan. Start the installation process by attaching the engine mount bracket to the Oil Pan together with the engine mount afterward secure both the transaxle brace and Starter motor before connecting the oil level sensor electrical connector. Reinstall the frame assembly while you connect the catalytic converter pipe to the engine right side Exhaust Manifold and install the A/C Compressor. Underneath the vehicle lower the system to proceed with removing the engine support fixture (J32594-B) followed by strut mount installation onto the engine block beforeadding engine oil and completing with body ground cable attachment.
