Hi, i have a Ford Mondeo 2.0 16v Ghia Auto. *Ive been having a problem with
an oil leak which has now been diagnosed as the sump gasket wearing away. *I
have purchased the gasket and was wondering if it is an easy enough job to
attempt or whether to get a pro on it ?? any feedback would be graetly
appreciated.


I have an almost identical car (not auto, 2000) with the same problem
(noone described it as "wearing" away, but it is leaking . As I
understand it you need to take the exhust off then replace the gasket,
not an easy job. I am loosing about a litre of oil a month, and only
when I drive it (so not much of an oil stain on the drive). I am just
living with it until it gets worse.
