| have just took the sump off my golf as i whacked something hard the other night and there was a puddle of oil underneath the next morning :( I already have a new sump ready to go on (will do that tomos) but when i took the sump off there is no gasket? seems strange to not have a gasket so was wondering if anyone knows should it have one or not? I didnt get one with the new sump either. | |
