I was jacking my car and the jack slipped and crushed my oil pan. I tried to start it and it made a clunking noise from the crank hitting the pan. I turned the car off once I heard the noise(maybe 2 rotations). Is this an easy fix with just replacing the oil pan or might my engine be messed up from the crank hitting the pan?or is it a possibility the jack crushed the crank aswell? The pan doesn't leak, its just crushed. Thank you for your help!

Same thing happened to a friend of mine, all he had to do was change the pan, hope thats all you have to do also.

how?

How do I go about removing the oil pan. Do I need to remove the motor, just remove the cross member, or should it just drop and slide out? Thanks again!
