4 Pot leaking oil from sump sensor connector.
« on: 07 July 2010, 15:15:26 »

just had a look under the car, oil is leaking from the sump sensor at the connection. The plastic connector feels loose in the sump.

Someone please tell me that the bottom half of the sump doesn't have to come off to tighten/seal it, because it looks that way as there are no bolts on the outside  :(

break >:(

Any idea how much the gasket costs. I doubt I could afford it ATM or to keep feeding it with oil :'(

Is there no way to seal it from the outside?  :-/
