Oil level sensor

Post by dirtydirtydiesel »

Does anyone on here know the whereabouts of the oil level sensor on a D9 2.0 hdi.
If so has anyone had any success removing & cleaning it, I'm starting to get some very odd readings :roll:
Startup on the flat & it shows nearly full, drive along a bit & get a oil level low warning :shock:
Stop allow to cool, check dipstick, level fine :frown: Startup only one or two blocks showing
& low oil level warning again :?
Thanks all in advance DDD.

The oil level sensor is combined with the oil temperature sensor, and is located on the rear right hand side of the DW10 engine.

Hope that helps!

I had similar issues with mine in the early days when I had an intermittent leak at the fuel filter. Seemed whenever it was leaking I got funny oil level readings.
Guess one of the wiring connectors was getting soaked in diesel. Been good as gold since I sorted the leak.
