OK Guys.
I've got oil leaking from what I assume is the Oill pressure warning switch below the oil filter (325 Engine) I've looked on "Euro Car parts" and they list 2 ? Can someone give me the correct part number or description ?
Am I right in assuming that it comes as a complete unit that screws into the block ? And would therefore cure this leak ?
Thanks
Kevin

Leaking oil pressure switch is very common problem.
The only reason I can think of why there should be two listed, is if they have different types of electrical connector. The later type has a 2 pin waterproof connector (only one pin used), and possibly an erlier type has a single lucar type connector.
Don't assume that ECP or GSF are always cheaper than the dealer, especially if you have to pay carriage charges.
This item will only be a few pounds from your local BMW dealer, and if you give them the last 7(?) characters from your VIN, you will be sure of getting the correct genuine article.
