get a vdo gauge as they look (because they are) OEM and can be found on audi's mostly. they are 52mm and is a common size. pretty easy job too!

are you sure the sensor is plugged in? If we're talking a mk2 8v engine it's the front one on the top of the oil cooler. :)

yep defo everything is plugged where it should be im toying with the idea of one of those three way digi gauges???it does oil pressure,oil temp and water temp but i'd prfer amp/volt metre instead.ive had the clocks out and they seem fine checked all connections and earthed the wires going to the switch so must be a nightmare inbetween???lol
