Hi all wifeys polo gti ( 1.6 16v 1999 on an X plate) had an oil light fault which the local vw specilist traced to a faulty oil temprature sender switch.
I had them do an oil pressure and temp check which were ok and there fault code showed the oil temp sender had gone to zero ohms dead short hence the oil light and beeping
I'm going to replace both the oil pressure and temprature senders and have orderd both from the local vw dealer ( £30 the pair incl vat if your interested )
Question is where are they, the vw diagram dosent show it very clearly at all.
Anyone got any pics or diagrams of where they are as it would be a bit embarasing getting a garage to fit two little sensors after I sucessfully rebuilt the rear suspension on my tod.
P.S to those who offerd me second hand suspension parts thanks for the offers and if I didnt get back to you I'm sorry, the original vw bits brand new turned out to be about £60 a corner so I went with those.
