Sump sensor?
Am i right in thinking this is for the oil gauge (vts)?
I have just snapped mine off... will this cause any problems until i replace it?
Also where's best to find a replacement?
Thanks

You are correct and eurocarparts or ebay or citroen main dealers are places you can buy the sensor mate.Or on here in the for sale section too.

Will this effect the running of the engine? Pretty sure it won't but just checking
Just noticed a white connector just hanging down next to it. Guessing this should be plugged in but can't see where it should go. Any ideas?

Cheers guys, got the white one in the end.
Its the connector rather than the oil sensor itself that has snapped. Went to Citroen today and they don't sell them separately, they wanted to sell me the whole engine loom! Is it a case of getting the connector of a scrappy or is there anywhere that does sell them?
