Hi. I am trying to remove the sump off a M40 engine, I have removed all the bolts that I can see and it still want come off. There seams to be somthing holding it at the gearbox end, now do you have to remove the gearbox to remove bolts? (the engine is still in the car)

It should just fall off, there two bolts from the bell housing and also if you look at the bell housing at the bottom of it you will see two holes, in there you will find two more 10mm bolts. Dont force it!
