Also found in the Chevrolet Cobalt, the Chevrolet Cobalt Oil Pan is an important part that help in supplying oil to the vehicle's vital engine. A wet sump system is used in most Cobalt automobiles; in this system, low-quality oil is drawn by an oil pump through the sump pan to spread and lubricate the engine's moving parts before falling back into the reservoir. The oil pan is positioned from the oil pump pick up tube and hence, there is always oil covering the tube in order to avoid any issues of lubrication. Previous models may have contained stamped steel oil pans, but later Generations of Cobalts employ a cast aluminum reservoir that is superior in every way.
