[urq] RE: Oil Pan Replacement

[fdekat]

Hello All:

While in putting on a new oil pan, you could also put in the windage tray, as
used in some of the 20V motors. I'm not sure if it does much, but it sure
would look cool, along with the aluminum oil pan!

(see http://www.humanspeakers.com/audi/windage.htm for photo and part no.)

Funny enough, it's not very expensive. When I got it at the dealer, it was 1
cent different in price than the also required pan gasket...
(Remember that you need a pan gasket on bothsides of this part, and I think
you need a replacement one for the oil pickup too, as you have to take that
off to put on the tray)

Regards,
