Default For those of you who have added the auxiliary gauges what oil pressure sender did you use?

Currently I am using PN 035 919 561A which works fine for the guage but causes the idiot light to throw.

Any ideas what the correct one is?

Default hmm the way that mine was setup the factory

<center><img src="http://www.mnsi.net/~natwhite/Audi/Images/v6block.jpg"></center><p>The oil pressure sensor for the oil pressure warning system was in the same location as the oil pressure sender for gauge in the picture. I suppose I need to add the oil pressure sensor for the oil warning system on the opposite side of the T in the block so it would sit underneath the air conditioning compressor??

Default Yup

When the line for the oil pressure sensor for the oil pressure warning system is hooked to it it throws the wrong signal and the idiot light displays.
