sender

I tried changing the Water Temp' sender this evening as I’ve been having the erratic temp gauge syndrome. I currently have the old black type. Straight forward enough job to change. However when I received the new green type there was no 'O-ring'. I thought I would just use it from the old...

Hi Got an 04' LC 32K miles, AUQ engine, yesterday the orange engine warning light come on, did a bit of searching on here and thought it might be the water temp sender. Especially as the car seemed reluctant to start, almost as if the battery was low on charge (it's not I've checked)...

My temp gauge on the dash has stopped working,not moving at all,is this likely to be cos the sender on the block is knackered?? car seems fine otherwise

Need a bit of help. When wiring up the oil temperature sender for the guage i have two wires on the sender. In the intructions it doesn't say anything about this and only tells me to connect one wire to the sender and the other to the nearest earth on the engine. Was wandering what other...

I been on here for 30 mins and now have ordered nomad pillar pod and 2 auto gauges, boost and oil temp. Thanks for all the information i have managed to get from previous threads. One thing i did not find out is if there is anything else i need to get for my oil temp to work. I'm going to...

As per my other recent post, I had the good ol' coolant warning light come on the other day despite the car being nicely topped up. The warning light was fairly intermittant and inconsistent so I had the sensor changed and all was good. Until the next day when it came back on. :doh: I...

my speedo is broken as it doesnt read anything. i have removed the sender from the gear box and had a look how it works, i can see the shaft is driven by a cog but at the top of the sender where the cap clicks on and the plug clips to it, i cant see how the signal goes from the spinning shaft...

Went to install my autogauge oil temperature gauge today, however had a spot of trouble with the sender, as i was screwing it in I seem to have over done it and the temperature probe at the end of the threaded section has met with something and has partially sheared and left some of itself...

I found today when my car was sat in traffic it had gone from 90 - 110 on the gauge?? I done VAG-COM lastnight and it came up as Temp Sender Fault so I guess this would be my problem? Soon as I pull away and drive it goes back to 90.. Also my car hestitates on boost from around 3.5k but...

Done a search on a replacement temp sender. Came up with this part no. 059 919 501 A On the original thread, the poster was asking if he had the right number but it wasn't confirmed. Basically my temp gauge is fluctuating but not going over the central position. Can anyone confrim...

:( I'm the owner of a '53 plate Leon S (1.4) and I'm having problems with my engine temperature guage which is registering anywhere between no reading at all to 45% of the engine temp range, whatever takes its fancy! :confused: I take it that it's the engine temperature sender that's at fault...

Can anyone who's fitted the sender unit into the oil filter housing tell me if they drained the oil before removing the existing 10mm blanking plug, located on top of the housing (with the allen key head)? Might be a stupid question :confused: , but just wanted to check. Cheers guys Lee

I've had suspicions about it because the car idles lumpy sometimes, especially when cold, and other people here seem to have those symptoms with a faulty cts. What's really made me think is I had vag-com plugged in this morning and at the end of my 1/2 hour trip to work the coolant temp...
