Default Sump Pan Leaking

Hi All,

I have just discovered a leak coming from the right hand side of the sump pan. Is this just a matter of undoing the bolts clean her up, replace the gasket and re-tighten, or is there some sinister trick that i should be aware of that is going to make the job much more difficult

Thanks Everyone

No sinister trick as far as I know (but then I haven't had that problem (just all the others)
Manual should tell you - look in the technical sections if you haven't already done so.
You are sure it isn't the drain plug which just needs a new washer ?

Thanks Guy's

I have already checked the bolts around the leak area and all are good, so I guess I will be doing a new sump gasket real soon.
While I have it off is there anything else I should check?
