Hello. I just had my oil changed and the 4 days later I have a Pool of oil on the drive way. found out after paying for inspection, its supposedly coming from the Oil Filter Housing or specially

Filter Assembly Gasket - Jaguar (AJ811453)
Any one have instruction on how to put a new one on take apart and put back together, looks straight forward kind of ?

Im going to pick up the Oil filter housing gasket right now from Jag 25 $ California

thanks jayson
any help please and advise

2015 XF RED 3.0 S/C Uk version. Was ordered new.

 

Did you get the oil change at a jaguar Dealership

 

Unfortunately no. Jaguar Here in Anaheim California, wanted to charge me 583$ so I called a couple Shops that work on luxury cars found a Jag Mechanic, anyway I bought the oil and filter from the Dealership 152$ 7 Qts plus Filter. anyway I guess he did not have the correct Metal filter wrench cap. so he used a Band wrench and twisted to hard i guess to take it off and damage it but he said he was not responsible to wear and tear.

anyway 3 days later My oil was leaking all over my engine and I took ti back and he said its not the Oil pan Bolt. its coming from the Filter housing.

he wanted to take apart the cooling system and drain the oil, new oil and new coolant wante to charge me 2200 to Fix.

Point is Im going to do it myself. can someone please tell me how to put the new Oil filter gasket on ? it look like 1 star boolt. but on line it shows 2 other that are internal.
please let me know thanks

Update. I was able to remove the 3 Torq #27 Screw's from the inside of the chamber, how ever i cant fit a screw driver with the TorQ bit for the last one outside because its tight abd being blocked by the fuel rail.
afraid to touch that i do not know how to remove.

so i loosened the fuel rail bolts and i Ordered on amazing LONG Skinny Torq screw driver set should be able to reach it by tomorrow. its the second photo TorQ bolt hidden Sigh.

What I am trying to replace. and repair

 

OK I fixed the Issue...
!) You order the Oil Filter Gasket, Jaguar Dealership has is 24 $
2)Then Drain the Oil. and Unscrew the Oil filter,
3) inside the oil filter is 3 T27 Bolts. Remove those.
4)Then Facing the motor is a Hard to Reach T27 screw, unscrew that pull out the bolts and then lightly wiggle the OIl filter Housing Loose.
you will remove the Old Gasket. I just used a tiny Screw Driver and a mini Hammer to Pry under and loosing then old Gasket.
Clean the area and the bottom of the oil filter housing. I used a scotch bright pad to Clean up both surfaces.
5) I recommend applying RTV Black Sealant to both sides if the Self Crush Gasket. Wait 30 mins. then Put Back on
6) Reverse order Oil Filter Bracket, Bolts ( blue lock tight) tighten them in a Star Pattern. Hand tight, 1/4 to Half Turn to Torq Down.
Wait 6 to 12 hours before Re-adding the oil/ Filter etc.
My leak stopped end that area.
Good luck everyone!
