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.

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.
