leaking oil pan again
The oil pan on my 2002 Volvo s40 automobile is leaking. I do not know how to fix it.
I take it into a garage and no mechanic will touch it because the oil is leaking.
The oil pan has already been drilled and a new larger plug has been added. I really do not want to buy a new oil pan; is there any alternative?
Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Okay, I believe that I must replace the oil pan. It is too risky to drive around with a leaky oil pan.
I will try and get one used, but I need to know how big a job is this?
It does to require more than just a replacement oil pan. Say gaskets are required to
seal the pan once a replacement has been found and installed. Is there a gasket kit available?
Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Also, someone said that secondary oil pan is required. What are they talking about.
On a 2002 Volvo s40 once the oil pan is removed there is a secondary pan that must also be removed. What is this about and what is the secondary oil pan's part number?
I think that there is no doubt the oil pan must be replaced, I am just getting prepared for the job and I need some direction.

I got an oil pan for my 2002 s40 Volvo from Amazon for about $ 170.00. It did not fit, in spite of what the fitment software that Amazon uses for checking whether a part fits your car said.
I should have known. There is no way you can get a 2002 Volvo s40 oil pan and gaskets for that price.
I am asking now where can I get a reasonably priced oil pan for this car. Also, I need the gaskets and the all other accessories.
