s2 Oil Pressure Switch

[simkin911]

When the garage were doing my belts they remarked there was a slight oil leak from the oil pressure switch. Presumably this is a case of simply replacing the part to resolve?

However, which is appropriate?

Porscheshop £64
or
Design911 - OEM £73, aftermarket £29.50
or
ECP £17.31 or £28.14 (FAE version)

Any advice appreciated, thanks.

If it is working try removing it and refitting it with a fresh wrap of PTFE tape on the threads. You never know it might just work.

I recently replaced the Oil pressure sender on my 951 as it was starting to fail and giving very odd/ spurious readings. From what I can tell it's a standard 5bar VDO sender unit with a low pressure warning feed. Before you buy another part I'd try the PTFE tape approach.

It's worth checking any non OPC parts have the correct thread as well ?
