Running my van up to temperature.
I get a small weep and intermittent bubbling near the oil Pump and mainly near a brown cable I think for a sensor.
It’s a the back of the block on the bottom left side.
Is the bolt a should nip up on there.
I think the previous owner may have done work there.
iMessage or WhatsApp to see the video.

Thank you

Most likely the switch (its not a sensor) has failed and is passing oil. Replace immediately or they can suddenly let out a jet of oil when running.

Thank you. I’ll order a replacement today.
Must I go to regular suppliers for t25? It is the grey switch that’s meant to be there right?

I’ll need a white one 1.6-2.0bar for this spot right?
Are these fitted with o rings?

Could be black, grey or white. Depends on year of engine. You could simply change like for like.
They are prefitted with a sealing washer.
I've found it far easier to remove 3 bolts and put aside water pump pulley for best access.
