Mind the sumps

[mmt 15]

Hi Guys, 

What is the difference between the xu7jp sump and the xu10j4rs sump? 
 

any inside pictures of the xu7 sump? 
 

thanks.

I’ve had 2 xu7 sumps alloy there the same inside as the xu10j4rs the only differences between them are some do not have the threaded hole at the front for the oil temp sensor but easy to drill and tap and the xu10j4rs has extra wings at the gearbox end to take extra gearbox bolts so if running a gti6 or xsara Gearbox you need the xu10 One can get photos next week if you still wanted some

Thanks mate. 
do you know if they are the same in relation to the Oil control plates ? My xu10 rs has a single plate with a trap door in it.

Yes both have the single plate with trap door fitted the 2 I had one was off a 1.8 8v and the other was a 1.8 16v think it was only the steel sumps that had no trap door
