Oil Pan Removal Engine in car

[Turbo RX-6]

Is it possible to remove the oil pan to inspect the bearings with the motor still in the car on a TTA?

Yes, I had to take out the engine mount bolts and tranny mount bolt and jack the motor up a little.

Take the two long motor mount bolts out. Also take your EGR selenoid off as well so it does not hit your windshieldwiper motor. The hoses to the intercooler and couple bolts in oil pan that have tranny lines hooked to them. If you do not remove the intercooler watch close when jacking her up that the intercooler fan does not hit it. It is possible with out removing the intercooler. It's a tight fit putting pan back on and keeping gasket in place but it can be done.
