hello just had quite a bad accident, I'm in need of any help on what i may need to replace!
I've basically smashed off the bottom corner of my sump i noticed right away and turned the car off so have not damaged the internals, all i can think off is i need a new sump but looked on service box and there £360 that seems a hell of a lot to me, will it be a job i can do myself or is it quite an intense job not like undo the 16 or so bolts and it will pull off?
Any help will be great thanks

The black pipe looks like the oil pick up, would usually have a mushroom shape gauze on the bottom.
Don't go by halves, do you!! Lol

always use PSA sump; cheap sump will rust away very shortly.
even a secondhand sump is still good as i rarely see corrosion on the sump
