Oil pressure sending unit (deluxe 2-output kind) -or- TheBuzzer of DeathT



No, you don't know what item I'm talking about. THIS IS NOT THE STOCK
SENSOR. It is the one that has TWO OUTPUTS. One to the dash, one to an
audi(vdo) oil pressure gauge from 0 to 5 bar.

The actual PRESSURE READING is fine.

THE DASH LIGHT SENSOR is hosed.

They are NOT $7 at the dealer, trust me on this.


As for the link being truncated: COPY AND PASTE or just use the item
number????!!!??

This is pretty much answering my question though, but I'm still going to try
and repair it.

Thanks,

No.  The best thing it to just replace them.  No more than $7.00 at the
dealer, blue at the head, and white at the oil filter housing.  I do not
recommend anything other than factory for these, in my experience, they can
be inferior and go off where there was no issue, or never go off at all...
