Hey,

After changing twice the sump gasket, going to do it for 3rd time, any recommendations how to fit it without having leaks after 1 year?

Thanks

Are you using genuine gaskets or aftermarket? I used after market once and it leaked, replaced with genuine and its been fine

Only genuine parts for my car

Are you tightening it up in the right sequence?

Yes,
Recently I saw there is a need for silicone
Is it necessary?
