i once completely forgot to let the rtv cure when putting the troony pan back together. filled it up like 5-10 mins after application and only realised half a day later what i had done kek. that was 4,000 km ago thoigh. pan still not leaking
if they let it cure which they probably did, it should be fine. that seal will outlast the engine
I swear every janked up motorcycle engine I ever got had a moron go HAM on rtv. Either on the valve cover or oil sump. PLS don't use a huge glob. This is not bigger the glob, better the job.
"gasket maker" and other assorted compounds are garbage and usually used by moronic engineers and moronic Black folk who are too stupid and lazy to make a proper gasket/o-ring for sealing. >b-but [famous company] uses it in all their cars
ok but its still gay Black person shit
Some places its essential like an engine girdle, transmission case halves (if using tapered bearings in each half), or sealing where 3 different parts meet (say timing cover/block/valve cover connection)
Using RTV for shit like an oil pan or water pump or other component like that is certifiably moronic
Someone on ft86club disassembled the oil pan and found the rtv applied on the edge, when sealing there is no place for it go but towards inside the oil pan
damn, this is actually similar to what looked my troony's pan had. the bead was probably about 1mm closer to the edge of the pan than what's in this pic though
This whole new gen BRZ/86 was looking like a cheap money grab from the start, the fact they decided to increase the bore on the existing fa20 with it's already tight tolerances to accommodate 2.4 liter?
Just looking at the cylinder sidewalls of the old engine makes me nervous, there's barely space left to put a gasket in there, now it's even thinner? Correct me if I'm wrong, because I don't see how this will end well
why bother when morons will keep buying, complaining, then buying again while yelling far and wide the superiority of Subaru and boxers as they hand over $45000 for the same exact 200 awhp car they just bought 3 years ago
You only use gasket sealer on fricking cracks and indents on the mating surfaces. The fricking gasket is there to seal shit. Subaru still does this shit then the subiesisters sperg out when you call their engines shitty.
>itt: armchair mechanics
toyota have been sealing oil pans with rtv for fricking decades. there hasnt been any problems until now
pic related the gasket that the dealer performed on my oil pan because the last moron used a gasket and it leaked like a sieve
that's because it's a dogshit subie engine. Toyota has never had issues with RTV seals.
Cope. I will never get an 86 after i learned subaru put it's filthy hands on the drivetrain. What crap, a company known for engines that blow up collaborates with one reknowned for reliability.
That's how 99% of automakers seal oil pans bruh.
Squeeze out ain't gonna hurt you.

Provide link to the video Black person
Searching for "GR86 エンジンブロー" on Twitter shows a lot of engines blowing up due oil starvation after the rtb gets stick in the oil pickup
rtv not rtb
>Drifting a shitbox with a boxer engine
>causes oil starvation on hard lateral G's
>"nooo subaru put in too much sealant!"

I fricking hope that my UK car is delayed so they fix this before any are delivered...

rtv would seal better on uneven or damaged surfaces. decent gaskets can hold up too but if the mating surface is damaged, gg

Way too fricking much of that shit. Looks like some moron plopped 3x what it needs to seal.
Preventive action by another driver, he found rtv flaking into the oilpan

They are making the same mistake as with the EJ series, this video demonstrates it very well (skip to 4:05)

I fricking hate Subaru engineering so much,you would think that after 30 years they would figure out how to create a robust and efficient engine
why bother when morons will keep buying, complaining, then buying again while yelling far and wide the superiority of Subaru and boxers as they hand over $45000 for the same exact 200 awhp car they just bought 3 years ago
Probably just marginally cheaper
giving each cylinder an extra 100mL of displacement is fricking nothing. Its increasing the inside cylinder wall radius by 2mm each cylinder.
It's bore is now 8mm increased, so 4mm on each side..

Hello?
please be "parts supply" related.
Fake news
What was wrong with an easily replaced rubber gasket? Why are they gluing oil pans?
>RTV
Looks like Toyota is learning from BMW.
pic related, clogged M3 oil pickup tube sucking up RTV
Listen to the king Scotty, use a real gasket and tiny amount of rtv on the OUTER edge

It's kind of ridiculous how the Scion tC was faster than the Scion FRS despite not looking as sporty
