V6 temperature gauge sender
« on: 24 December 2011, 15:07:01 »
Where is the temperature gauge sender on the 2.5 petrol V6?

I have just done cam cover gaskets, and obviously dislodged a connector, as I now have no gauge. Heater is hot though.

Personally, I'd just take off the scuttle, than should give enough room, although you may have to climb on engine a bit.
