SENSOR OIL LEVEL 3PIN

Product Description

This brand new 3-pin oil level sensor is designed to monitor the sump oil level in select Volkswagen vehicles. The sensor provides real-time feedback to your car’s electronic system, helping you avoid low oil conditions that can lead to engine damage. Featuring a robust plastic body and secure mounting tab, this sensor is built for reliable performance in the demanding environment of your engine bay.

Specifically suited for Volkswagen models, this sensor fits vehicles equipped with compatible oil level monitoring systems. It is especially relevant for models like the Polo 9N 1.4TDI from 2002 to 2009. Always confirm your vehicle’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before placing your order to ensure correct fitment.

Common symptoms of a faulty oil level sensor include warning lights on the dashboard, inaccurate oil level readings, intermittent oil level warnings, and in some cases, failure of the engine management system to detect low oil. If you notice these issues, it is likely time to inspect and replace the sensor.

Replacing a malfunctioning oil level sensor is important to maintain accurate monitoring of your engine’s oil status. Installation generally requires basic tools and access to the sump area, but consult your workshop manual or a qualified technician if unsure.
