Abstract: A filtering assembly for collecting sediment from fluid of a powertrain device is provided. The filtering assembly includes a bottom pan and a sediment trap. The bottom pan has a bottom surface and is configured to collect the fluid of the powertrain device. The bottom pan may have a side wall cooperating with its bottom surface to define a cavity within the bottom pan. The sediment trap has opposed upper and lower surfaces. The lower surface may be attached to the bottom pan. The upper surface is configured to receive the sediment when the sediment falls toward the bottom surface of the bottom pan as the sediment is acted on by gravity. The sediment trap is configured to trap sediment received through its upper surface. A method for collecting sediment from the fluid of a powertrain device is also provided.
