Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Oil Sump
The oil sump consists of two parts. The upper section of the oil sump is made from cast aluminum and is sealed to the crankcase with a rubber-coated sheet steel gasket. This section of the oil sump has a cross shaped cut out oil filter element recess. The upper section of the oil sump is inter connected to the oil pump and is sealed with a sealing ring. The double panel (noise insulation) lower section of the oil sump is flanged to the upper section of the oil sump.
