Need help finding oil pressure sensor

Waarya · 05-19-2021, 06:10 AM

Hey, I have a e90 320i bmw and it the oil pressure sensor seems to be not working properly. I need to replace it but can't seem to find where it is located.

Here is the engine.

I think that you're looking at the wrong end, the level sensor is on the bottom of the oil pan.

Based on your VIN (VC18381) this is what shows up on Realoem. Cant really make out if the last two digits of your vin are 81 or 61, regardless it doesn't change anything.

To answer your question, it seems that the oil pressure sensor will be located behind the oil filter housing.
