Anyone know the part number for these clips on a G60?
Also interested if anyone has any 👍

Thanks @Bauhaus

👍

Got a green cable coming from the engine bay to the fuse box, test shows it coming from the digifant connector on the highlighted pin
Anyone have any ideas? Can't seem to find it on any wiring diagrams

Thanks @Crasher, much appreciated 👍

Morning,

If anyone can provide some direction on Oil pressure sensors for a G60 it would be much appreciated, Ekta, Bentley and the original parts I have all seem different - query relates to the one on the RH of the head where the charger takeoff is and the one on the top of the oil filter housing

I have 068 919 081 and 056 919 081C but not sure which way around they were when removed:

• 068 919 081 marked 0.15-0.45bar (black)
• 056 919 081C marked 1.4 +/-0.2 bar (black)

Bentley shows 

• Head - 0.3bar (brown)
• Oil Filter - 1.4bar (black)

Etka

• Head 028 919 081 H    oil pressure switch    0,25BAR M10X1 (blue)
• Oil filter:  

2    056 919 081    oil pressure switch    1,8BAR M10X1 (white)

(2)    068 919 081 D    oil pressure switch    1,4BAR M10X1 (black)
(2)    068 919 081 C    oil pressure switch    0,9BAR M10X1 (grey)

Thanks

Morning all,

looking to run the engine loom as close to stock as possible, has anyone got any pics of the general cable route from the headwall nr the coil across the engine?

In particular route from alt to starter, head to temp sensors/oil sensors and ISV

Thanks 

Thanks

@Keyo - Thanks m8, much appreciated

Couple of others if you know:

> Have a stray brown/white loomed up with the o2 pot sensor?

> Have a blue cable with single plug which I understand to be the 'alternator excitor wire' - where does this connect? (image attached)

Thanks in advance

Hi All,

Now finishing up wiring ect for my transplant but have a few loose ends, any help appreciated:

Blue and Black temp sensors:

I have 4 wires (plugs missing atm) which don't seem to match bentley:

Brown, white/brown, brown/green, yellow/green

Reverse switch:

Can anyone confirm black/red and black/blue to plug?

Oil pressure switches:

Have Yellow which is high oil pressure?

Also have blue/white and green/black, one of these is low oil pressure which don't seem to match my bentley?

Not sure what the other is?

I may have missed something obvious in the items above, loom is new to the car and engine

Thanks

Yeah used UB front to back, where there was any damage or rust to existing underseal I cleaned it back to bare metal and coated with red oxide and then 3m schutz and UB over the top

Top 3 gauges sit in a universal holder that took an age to chop in, lower steel plate sits in a grove created by the universal holder and is cut snug to sit in the bottom - took a while but I think the end product looks tidy

May have opened a can of worms here but it's good to vent
@MJA you triggered my memory...
Had a full respray about 5yrs ago, stripped it all down, door shuts etc - everything except the engine bay. Reassembled the car and went to put on the last item which was the badge they forgot to paint - car was the wrong colour
Later got my engine out, cleaned down every mm of the engine bay and took it to a 'better' bodyshop; colour looked better so started to run brake lines etc.
Noticed a small defect in the paint so undertook a repair with a mixed rattle can, spent a good bit of time in prep etc - job done.
Removed the masking and guess what - Bay was the wrong colour and different to the body
Transpires there are 3 helios blues with different paint codes but paint manufacturers don't all make the differentiation
Have since done the bay respray myself and will provide the paint when I get the body done (again)

Got some early hours in on the C this morning and found this wiring abortion left for me by a 'professional' installer, in true fashion buried under about 3 rolls of tape - whats the worst anyone else has found?

Thanks folks, I'll have a look at what's about

Hello ABV,

did you sort a head unit? Going through the same myself so would be interested to know what you choose 👍

cheers!

Bit of a thread revival

Where did you get to with this @v11boy?

Im going though options now, in honesty will probably go for a retro look with current tech than a period correct model; this led me to the Bremen same as others 

Haha, I've done this a few times! Bought new parts then discovered I actually previously bought them and forgotten about it!
