I had a problem with the oil/water gauge the sensor for the water temp broke off, so I sent it away for repair that's been repaired fine and now works a treat. However now my oil pressure seems to not work it's reading a constant 0, before I sent it away it was fine. Is there something I may have missed? Really don't want to have to pull that thing out again and wait another two months for it to be fixed

2 months, is that how long they are taking currently?

I'm guessing you tried tapping the thing.

You could pop the line off the back (or just inside the engine bay under the F1 panel) and check you have oil I'm the line. Put a rag over it and get someone to crank the engine. Make sure you only crank it over briefly as there will be a LOT of oil!

If you do then it'll be that they have naffed it up unfortunately.
