Engine Oil Sump Pan ?️

Why is This Part Important?

The engine oil sump pan is vital for storing and collecting the engine oil. It sits beneath the engine block and acts as a reservoir, allowing your engine to maintain proper lubrication. Clean and sufficient oil prevents friction, overheating, and metal-to-metal contact inside the engine.

How Does It Work?

As the engine runs, oil circulates through its moving parts, and then drains back into the sump pan by gravity. The oil pump draws oil from the pan and pushes it through the motor, ensuring all components remain lubricated and cool.

Effects of a Damaged Oil Pan

• Engine oil leaks, leading to low oil levels
• Possible severe engine wear or seizure
• Smoke or burning smell under hood
• Oil warning light activation

Ignoring oil leaks or pan damage can cause catastrophic engine failure. Timely replacement is essential to keep your SUV running smoothly.
