Honda Civic Gen 10 1.5T Oil Pan Baffle

The Wunderladen Racing oil pan baffle is the perfect solution for keeping your oil pickup tube surrounded by oil, this means higher oil pressure during hard turning. From the factory there is nothing in the pan to control oil flow in the sump so we knew we had to change that!

Our baffle replaces the factory windage tray and features 4 one way oil control flaps (2 on each side) that allow oil to flow towards the pickup tube but not away from it. With a precise fit to the pan there is minimal room for oil to flow around the baffle which keeps as much oil as possible near the pickup during driving but still allows oil to drain from the pan without any hinderance. Our baffle also acts as an improved windage tray which helps to cut down the amount of air that gets stuck in the oil which further helps keep oil pressure stable. Lastly, since the windage tray section does not dip down like the factory windage tray there is more room underneath it for increased oil capacity, almost a full quart more!

Our baffle provides the following improvements:

• Higher oil pressure during hard cornering
• Decreased oil aeration from the rotating assembly
• Higher oil capacity (from 3.7qts to 4.5qts!)

To install our oil pan baffle the factory rivets must be removed and the pan drilled and tapped for M6x1.0 bolts. If you do not want to deal with that we do offer the baffle preinstalled in a new pan. It comes with everything needed to install the new pan other than RTV to seal it to the block. 

NOTE: We strongly recommend test fitting the pan with the baffle without sealant and rotating the crank by hand to ensure the crankshaft does not contact the baffle before doing a final install. We have not had this issue present itself but the crank does run very close to the baffle. Be sure to clean pan, baffle and block mating surface of any oil, foreign material or drill shavings before reinstalling the pan. RTV requires clean, oil free surfaces to cure correctly and form a leak free seal.
