The sump, also known as the oil pan, is located at the bottom of the engine in a car. It serves as a reservoir for engine oil, allowing it to collect and be circulated throughout the engine to lubricate its components. The sump is typically made of metal or aluminum and is bolted to the engine block. Accessing the sump usually requires raising the vehicle and may involve removing components like the oil filter to drain the oil.
