The oil sump is made of die-cast aluminum with baffles. This is so that the oil will not move too heavily. It is secured in the cylinder block and in between there is a liquid gasket LOCTITE, which ensures sealing between the cylinder block and oil sump. The oil suction line running from the sump is made of plastic. The oil sump is provided with an oil level sensor.
