Saab Engine Oil Pump Pickup Tube Gasket - Genuine Saab 12567654

Product Information

An Engine Oil Pump Pickup Tube is a component of the engine's oiling system that connects the oil pump to the oil sump (or oil pan). It is responsible for drawing engine oil from the sump and delivering it to the oil pump, which then circulates the oil throughout the engine to lubricate moving parts, reduce friction, and maintain engine performance.

• Oil Leaks: Damage to the pickup tube or its seals can lead to oil leaks, which may be visible under the vehicle or around the engine compartment
• Low Oil Pressure: A failing or damaged pickup tube can result in inadequate oil flow to the oil pump, leading to low oil pressure. This can be indicated by a warning light on the dashboard or an oil pressure gauge reading lower than normal

About Genuine Saab

The original parts used by Saab to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Saab” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Saab, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Saab Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Saab are not necessarily manufactured by Saab. No cause for concern, as Saab designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Saab for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Saab parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Saab logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
