Detailed Description

Dorman 264-525 is an engine oil pan designed to match the original equipment pan on confirmed Mercedes-Benz fitments. The steel construction and OE-matched shape support proper sealing and oil containment on applications such as Mercedes-Benz S560, Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG, and Mercedes-Benz E400 models. This part number 264-525 is a practical replacement when the original pan is cracked, corroded, or leaking.

The pan uses a center sump layout and a wet sump configuration, with no oil level sensor port, dipstick port, pickup, or windage tray included. It also does not include a drain plug, so the existing service setup must be verified before installation. This engine oil pan is listed for lower mounting position applications only.

This part cross-references Spectra Premium MDP02A and URO 2720100126 for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Address

• Engine oil leaks from a damaged or corroded oil pan.
• Cracks or impact damage in the lower engine pan.
• Improper sealing caused by a worn original pan.
• Oil loss that can trigger low-oil warnings or service concerns.
• Replacement needs after pan removal during engine service.

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle’s lower oil pan configuration, sump layout, and mounting hole pattern before installation. Verify whether the application uses a separate gasket or seal, since this pan does not include one. Check drain service provisions and related components before reassembly, and inspect the mating surfaces for damage or residue.

Quality Assurance

Dorman 264-525 is engineered to match the original equipment pan on specific vehicle years, makes, and models for a reliable replacement. It is built for confirmed Mercedes-Benz applications and follows the OE-style form needed for proper fitment.
