20859706 Volvo EURO 6 Oil Sump Pipe

What does an oil sump pipe do?

This engine oil sump pipe is a critical component within the lubrication system, designed to facilitate the movement of oil between the sump and other engine components. Manufactured from high-strength components to withstand continuous thermal cycles and pressure fluctuations, it maintains vital flow paths necessary for engine longevity in heavy-duty applications.

Compatible Volvo engines and models

This part is compatible with a wide range of Volvo engines, including D11, D12, D13, and D16 series across models such as FH, FM, FMX, VHD, and VNL. It is suitable for EURO 6 emission standard engines including D13K and D11K configurations. Check the compatibility list.

Installation and maintenance guidance
