I inspected the dent. There's no leak at all. Not broken. Just a dent. Checked oil level, seems fine. It's not that big but it's not the smallest. Please see the pictures. Do you think if I need to fix the dent/replace oil pan or just leave it? Does anyone knows where exactly the oil pick up is? Is it in the area where I dented it? And if it is, is this a big dent that can affect the oil pick up? Thank you all in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman47 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Ted... I wouldn't worry about it. Look under the car in a couple of days for any leakage. Not sure where the pickup is located on that engine, but I doubt if you messed it up. Low oil pressure/check engine light would come on if you damaged the pickup. I did find online that oil pan replacement runs $300-500 on that engine. Take care. Tman (an old gearhead) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
