Water temp sensor Bosch N7000 (upgraded)

[billybradshaw]

Evening all,

I'm trying to locate a source for the above sensor. One of the usual suspects wants circa 27 quid by the time they've charged me £7.95 for postage!!!!!!

Any suggestions?

I am fairly confident that a faulty temp sensor contributed to my problems last year, culminating in head gasket failure, so I would highly recommend fitting a high quality sensor.

Indeed but they want 7.95 for postage to which they also add VAT hence the 27quid. P&P far too pricy for an item that small.

Do they not modify the postage cost for small items once the order is placed?

Not sure about that, I'll give them a call and see.

I'll see if mine has a part number. Have one to be fitted when I start taking my rack out this week.

[pmessling]

That is the correct number. I can confirm 0280 130 026

Yup, mine arrived today and the part number is spot on but clearly mine must be better cos I paid an extra fiver for it..........

Haha, apologies! Ah well, look on the bright side - I'm sure it'll fail again sometime, and then you can take advantage of the discounted one
