Ok, I'm guessing that requires the engine and gearbox to be removed? |

Go on e bay and buy a oil filter sandwhich plate. It goes between ur oil filter and housing. Ther absolute superb. They have 4 take off holes. I have my oil temp, pressure sensors in it as well as the turbo oil feed. Its 1 of the best items ive bought. Makes the job look like it grew there. |

Have you found one that works on the Mini oil filter housing? Link please :) On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

It comes from an e bay shop called auto guages. The item number is 360072473190. You need the 3/4 UNF fitting. It needs no mods at all to fit and the sensors of mine screwed right in. Its a fantasticly made item as well. I was very impressed with it and no leaks at all. |

Just digging out an old thread, is this the same as the item described above (as the item number is no longer valid) from "autodials" rather than "auto gauges". And is this a recomended option for oil pressure, temp, and turbo oil feed? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=390020032348 |

use it for temp and pressure, but don't use it for the oil feed as you will hae unfiltered oil going to the turbo. On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:
