Where is my Oil Pressure Sensor Located?
I have an intermittent fault with the oil pressure gauge where it throws a fault stating there is a faulty sensor.
The gauge will drop to zero suddenly, throw a fault, and then suddenly begin working again normally.
It started when the car got wet a few months back and I suspect that either the sensor is bad or more likely the wire connection to the sensor is oxidized.
Where is this sensor located?
Thanks in advance.

Just replaced mine - its located horizontally on the RS
10 minute job, 48 quid in the uk from ebay Porsche-Apart delivered in less than 24 hours
Note that the GT3RS version is fitted horizontally to the end of a metal tube with a bracket and it is much easier to fit a standard 0.75 inch spanner on it.
