Saturn Vue Oil Pan
The Oil Pan which is used in Saturn Vue vehicles is used to hold the oil that is used by the engine to reduce wear and friction as well as to cool the various parts of the engine. As for the Wet Sump system, the Oil Pan gathers oil sucked by a pickup tube and then supplied by the oil pump to the engine. This design enables the oil to return to the Oil Pan after the oil has gone round lubricating the various parts of the engine. At the earlier years of Saturn Vue Oil Pans, the material used for manufacturing was stamped steel but in the later years, cast aluminum was introduced as it provides more durability and better functioning in many of the models. Due to the Oil Pan's design the positioning of the engine is achieved and there's consideration of oil starvation under kinetic operation.
Each OEM Saturn Vue Oil Pan we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Saturn Vue Oil Pan Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How do you remove and install an oil pan in 3.0L V6 engine on Saturn Vue?A: Before getting at the oil pan, turn off the engine by removing the negative cable from the battery, drain the oil and take out the oil filter. Lift the car and put on jackstands and then unbolt the transaxle bellhousing brace bolts at the oil pan and the mounting bolts of the oil pan. Take extra care to remove the oil pan from the block by prying it away between the oil pan and the engine block surfaces, apart from the pry points to avoid bending or cracking or both, which may or may not lead to an oil leak; if you have to force the removal of the oil pan, then use a large rubber mallet or a block of wood accompanied by a hammer to apply enough force to free the part. For installation, use a gasket scraper or putty knife to remove all old gasket material, seal, from both pan and engine block then, before installing, clean both surfaces together with the mating surface of the engine block with lacquer thinner or acetone; the bolt holes in the engine block should be clean. On the engine block reinforcement, there are specific holes that must be aligned with special alignment dowels before fitting the oil pan. Use a 2 mm bead of RTV sealant to the flange of the oil pan, in a 3 mm bead line around and a little at from front and rear seams where the Oil pump and rear seal retainer meets the engine block. Place the oil pan on the engine block, fit the front bracket assembly and fasten the bolts loosely so that they can only be tightened with fingers, do the same for the bellhousing brace/oil pan bolts. In this step, the oil pan bolts need to be coated with thread locking compound before installing them and then using a deep socket to remove the alignment dowels; then, tighten the bolt to the required torque, in a star form from the center of the oil pan. The following steps include repairing the steps of taking out the oil, the installing of a new oil filler, refilling the crankcase with oil, reconnecting the battery and at last starting the engine, checking for oil leaks at the oil pan, repeating the check after a road test.
