michael5556 247 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Make sure you replace the o ring for it too as it will just leak otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 its much bigger than it looks when installed in the housing, as an off hand estimate its like an inch around Link to post Share on other sites
*P3nfold* 0 Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Cheers Guys, TPS confirm its not the 4 point but 2 point variant, so I will change it tomorrow. I got a plastic clip and o ring. Link to post Share on other sites
Split-Personality 0 Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 I have a, intermittent engine coolant temp sensor warning on my VAG Com.Replaced this part once before on my mk2 GTi but cant remember what the seal looked like? The guy at ECP wasn't sure if they had the exact right o ring in. How does this one look?Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
Split-Personality 0 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Bump, anyone know if this is the right seal? Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 looks like it is the right one to me. it should measure 19.6mm across and 3.6mm wide Link to post Share on other sites
Split-Personality 0 Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 Cheers mate, appreciate that! Going to attempt to replace it without draining the coolant. Didnt want to find out its not the right seal when its too late. Link to post Share on other sites
