robrado974 1 Posted July 16, 2016 I have oil coming out of the housing where the senders are located . I've just got two replacements from TPS . Any thing I should know about before doing the job ? , it looks like you just take off the connectors and unscrew the old ones . The screw in the new ones , replace the electrical plugs and it's done . Many thanks Rob . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tigerfish 10 Posted July 16, 2016 Yeah, that's about the long and tall of it. Did mine a few weeks back for the same reason. Some long extension bars (wobble ones worked best) on a socket set reach down past the manifold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted July 16, 2016 Thanks Tigerfish , I thought as much . I will have to get a pole with a rag on the end to clean it , it's difficult to get to . I don't won't to remove the front end to get to it really . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray1965 10 Posted July 16, 2016 Yeh mate easy job I replaced the high-pressure sensor last month, 24mm socket with a long extension bar. My lad helped me to guide it on the sensor from underneath. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delfinis38 1 Posted July 16, 2016 (edited) As long as you don't have airco like me... Its easy.... I found taking the headlight out the way to do it. Couple of screws and a connector. Edited July 16, 2016 by delfinis38 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fendervg 30 Posted July 16, 2016 Headlight on the driver's side out is a definite help. Use some pen oil first as well as they will likely have been there a long time and a deep or even better a hollow socket. Best of luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
culshaw 1 Posted July 17, 2016 yea headlight out is best way or you need a long nose wide socket, with headlight out adjustable wrench is all you need Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fendervg 30 Posted July 17, 2016 The Halfrauds pro hollow sockets are great though. I use an 11mm to bleed the brakes without having to touch the drain hose and you have ratchet control! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robrado974 1 Posted July 19, 2016 I hope so , it's nice and clean on top of the housing . It needs a good run with the pressure up . Hopefully all should be well . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
