    Hi,

    I want to change my oil pressure switches as i think they may be playing up. I went down to VW and apparantly there are 3 different colours for the one that goes in the oil cooler which is fine as i can check the colour of the old one.

    The one in the side of the head, VW said there is only one - a blue one. I have been told elsewhere that there are different colours for this one too. I `ve had a recent refurb and this sender was replaced with a blue one - is this correct or could it be a different colour?

    Its a PB engine in 91 8V Gti

    thanks, mike
