Title: Oil Level Sensor Wire
Post by: GTiBlues on January 18, 2014, 09:26:42 am

Since my car is much lower to the elements of twigs and horse sh*t on Devon roads. Has anyone come up with a simple solution of keeping the Oil Level Sensor wiring up?

Do you not have the plastic undertray?

It seems there are two different types. I have the larger one fitted. I would have a look on eBay but don't think they are too expensive from the dealer. Have a look at this thread. Might be some info in there of some use to you. http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,50358.0.html (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,50358.0.html)
