An oil pan is an essential component of a car's engine system. It is a metal container located at the bottom of the engine and is designed to collect and store the engine oil. The oil pan serves two primary functions - it acts as a reservoir for the oil and helps to cool the oil.

Firstly, the oil pan collects the oil that circulates through the engine and stores it for future use. When the engine is running, the oil is continuously pumped from the pan and circulated through various components, lubricating them and reducing friction. Additionally, the oil pan maintains a consistent oil level, ensuring that the engine has a sufficient and constant supply of oil for proper functioning.
