After the drive home last night, my oil pressure idiot light went on, and I noticed oil on the back window. Opened the engine compartment and there's oil everywhere. Looks like the oil pressure sender on the top of the engine is wet. Is this my likely problem? What size MM socket does it take? Thanks, R (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) |

That is a good thing to know, Ben! It just didn't seem very likely to me because the oil spots in Rob's car got as far as the rear window. Your suggestion of revving up the engine while inspecting it sounds useful.
BTW, the part number of the oil sender is 021 919 081 B; I ordered one at the local VW dealer for about 8 Euro. |
