Default ls430 oil pan! !!!!!!

So I had my oil changed at jeffy lube today. And they told me my oil pan and a pretty bad dent. And should be changed. I've raised my car already since it has coilovers. What my question is were can I get a replacement oil pan. Web or local. I can do the job myself. I live in northern California ...san jose to be exact

Or, you can always take the pan off and hammer the dent back out. Oil pans aren't very thick to begin with, so it's usually very easy to hammer them back into shape. Just make sure that it didn't take enough damage to crack.

Unless super bad dent that may cause problem with the pump inside - I'll leave it alone until need to replace the oil pan gasket due to leakage. Then you can remove the pan: clean/hammer or replace with a new one.....very messy job .

OP mentioned he was on coil overs previous to raising the car back up, probably hit some debris on the road thus causing damage to the oil pan.

I think it was when I was running late to go to work leaving my house or at work. We have really high speed bumps. I had to raise to get it in my driveway. Then I went to jeffy lube where they told me about the dent. But thanks guys for the help
