anyone know where i can get an oil sump for a 04 suzuki ignis 1.3?
Ive trawled the internet and phoned local scrappies but cant find one:(
local garages are wanting nearly £400 for part and fitting but hubby can fit it if we could find the part.
Thanks in advance:)

    Lots being broken for spares on ebay. Whats wrong with it? Rusty/Damaged?

    If its rusty then used ones may not be in better condition than your own.

    Don't think a jimny sump will fit, but they are like rocking horse droppings too.

    Problem is, being Japanese, they don't leak oil like a Proper Car so the sump rusts through from the outside and leaks.

    Very few breakers will sell just the sump, as they want to sell a good engine complete (and most similar engines are similarly rusty)
    I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....

    (except air quality and Medical Science ;))

    Problem is, being japanese, they're made from a recycled baked beans can. and about .5mm thick. Ask, why all they all rusty?

    Well there were 77 of them being broken for spares. As usual though most are selling a wheelnut or a bulb to save on ebay/paypal fees.

    You need to ask them if they have one.

    Couldn't you ask a local garage to weld it up? It has to be cheaper than a new part, and you'd have it back in half an hour.
