just put a new charger pipe on and snapped what i think is a steering sensor on top of the power steering pump,doh..:cursing:
is it just a pressure sensor as its only got one wire going to it?
do i need it?i mean will it do any harm with it not on, how difficult are they to change.
many thanks.

I broke mine weeks ago when i fitted my decat manifold and it doesn't seem to have done anything negative.

I do keep getting a check engine light but I think that might be my poorly extended lambda sensor wire.

Mine is totally knackered, it snapped clean through just about the built in nut.

Let me know if you find a part number!
