Oil Pan

The structural rear-sump oil pan is cast aluminum. Incorporated into the design is the oil filter mounting boss, drain plug opening and baffle. The oil filter bypass valve is now incorporated into the new design oil filter assembly and is no longer part of the oil pan assembly as in earlier design applications. The active fuel management oil pressure relief valve is also internal to the oil pan. Alignment of the structural oil pan to the rear of the engine block and transmission housing is critical.
