Spent several hours on the lift today - flushed the oil and while I was at it, the tranny fluid. Changed out the serpentine, tensioner, and idler pulley (went with the short belt). Removed the downpipe, etc. and dropped the oil sump.
The virgin mary herself would have been proud. Since I've owned the car, I've only run Mobil One full synthetic 5w30 and changed every 5k to 7k miles, and the sump was clean as a whistle (at almost 75k miles and 8 years old). The screen had just a few pieces here and there. Overall everything looked great. Sorry no pics - I forgot my camera and also didn't have my iphone with me. It was a solo job and I was on the clock (I pay $5/hr for a lift). One thing I must say if anyone does it is that it isn't that difficult (plan for 4 hrs), and make sure you have a checklist to ensure that you reconnect and refit everything (like the oil feeder tube).
One trick - I used "550 cord" to tie onto the ends of the O2 sensor plugs and tied them off to the anti-sway bar so I could easily retrieve them once I was done. Just pull them back up through.
I decided not to wrap the exhaust - there's no room so if I wrap it will jut up against the AT housing (and may be a problem refitting). That said, I have two 50' rolls of tan 2" exhaust wrap (with ties and gun metal gray silicone) that I will gladly donate to a good home if you catch me at Carlisle.
Next up - the T5 cams.
