Works with MINI Cooper factory Oil Temp gauge.
Used this on a MINI R53 with the optional oil temp gauge. This sender is mounted in place of the oil sump drain bolt. Since I use a vacuum oil pump, this sender won't be disturbed potentially damaging it from the routine oil changes. The sender itself is working as expected and is sending the temp to the gauge.

Works for a Yamaha OX66 250
M14 x 1.5 type C. Installed in place of a plug in top of block at #1 cylinder water jacket & now my analog gauge reads temp.

VDO Sensors Out of Spec.
I bought 2 of these which where out of VDO's Spec. They would not work with the VDO oil temp meter. I also bought 4 more from 3 different VW Beetle VDO vendors and all read out of spec with a standard ohm meter. Out of spec condition verified by dealer. Spec reads 22ohms at 250 degrees and 700 ohms at Cold ( 120 or Less ) All 6 read 200 ohms at 250 degrees and 1350 ohms Specs were verified by VDO. VDO Technical people do not understand anything electrical. Ask to speak to an engineer and they blew me off. This causes the meter to read cold when the engines is too hot. All three vendors tell me VDO does not want like dealers to provide support but yet they will blow you off.

Works great
Great sending unit. I have used one for years on my Golf GTI until the spade terminal broke off. This is a replacement and I expect many more years of service from it.

Not made like they used to be
Seems to have failed in short order. Gauge is a standard VDO 150C oil temperature gauge, sender is threaded into the oil cooler thermostat plug; after engine is warmed up the internal contacts inside the sending unit seem to be dodgy - needle begins bouncing and reading erratically. Gauge and wiring verified, sender grounding is good (no sealing compound). Replaced sender with 30 year old unit and all fixed. New sender turned out to be made in Mexico and not Germany
