Hi,

while looking through the engine bay after my T350's overheating, I found this sensor (?) which had oil clinging to it. I cleaned it and will keep watching it; hopefully it's not a leak. It shouldn't, because the oil level has been constant over our trip to Sweden and back.

Is it the oil pressure sensor? (Picture taken from the driver's side, looking down in front of the engine, the power steering reservoir is to the right).



Thanks

Konrad

yes that is the oil pressure sensor unit, which is pretty poor and doesn't last long, buy the updated one for £50 from any tvr parts dealer and fit it your self, it only takes two minutes

Mine did the same, leaked oil. Change it for a new improved one, link above.
