Dodge Caravan Oil Pan
The Oil Pan used in Dodge Caravan cars is that it is a storage compartment for the engine oil that helps in maintaining temperatures of the mechanical parts within the engine. A wet sump system is employed in Dodge Caravan and its Oil Pan takes oil drawn through a pickup tube by the oil pump and circulates it through the engine before it falls to the Pan. This design is very vital in ensuring that there is sufficient amount of oil depending on the required operating state. Before, Dodge Caravan Oil Pans were constructed using stamped steel but the recent versions offer more complex cast aluminum. These variations improve on durability and efficiency as a result contributing to the enhancement of the refrigeration systems. In this case though the basic function stays common to all different models, the shift from using steel to aluminum marks superior engineering in a bid to enhance efficiency and durability in the Dodge Caravan.
