During my build, I think i may have front lip of oil pan when removing timing chain cover. It is leaking from that area. The engine is all buttoned up with supercharger installed. Is it possible to pull oil pan out without removing kmember? Any pictures would be great as well.

My 2020 PP1 is at the dealer right now for defective oil pan. 3800 miles.

What exactly is the issue with the plastic oil pans??? Are they cracking? Or are they leaking at the engine connection? By the way, do they have an O-ring, or as still the crappy kind that requires RTV along the perimeter? I didn't notice anything obvious on my Bullitt when changing the oil last week at 1,128 miles, but if I had read this thread before, I'd have scrutinized it carefully. Thx.

By the way, several owners thought they had a leaky oil pan, and it was a loose oil filter. So not clear how much of an issue it really is.
