US Oil Pan for VW Golf 1, 2, 3 – 1.8T 20V Turbo
This specially designed US oil pan fits all VW Golf 1 to 3 models as well as VW Lupo, VW Polo, and VW Corrado with 1.8T engines ranging from 150 HP (AGU) to 225 HP (BAM – S3). The AEB engine, used in longitudinally mounted engines (e.g., Audi A4 or VW Passat), is excluded due to the oil pump being driven by the balance shaft, requiring a different oil pan design.
Technical Features:
- Material: Two-piece construction with a powder-coated steel lower part for maximum durability and an aluminum upper part for optimal heat dissipation.
- Height: Approximately 2.7 cm shorter than the stock oil pan, specially designed for lowered vehicles.
- Increased Ground Clearance: The reduced height minimizes the risk of oil pan damage from speed bumps, potholes, or rough roads.
- Enhanced Durability: The sturdy steel lower section protects against common aluminum oil pan fractures.
- Heat Dissipation: The aluminum-steel combination ensures optimal cooling and prevents engine oil overheating.
- Inspection Compliance: For lowered cars, the increased clearance makes TÜV (technical inspection) approval easier.
- Quality & Longevity: High-quality manufacturing guarantees long-lasting performance even under demanding conditions.
Applications:
Perfect for VW Golf 1, 2, and 3 owners with 1.8T engines who have lowered their vehicles or want enhanced durability and reliability. Also suitable for VW Lupo, Polo, and Corrado with the corresponding engines.
This oil pan is an essential upgrade for motorsport, tuning, and daily driving with modified vehicles.
