Engine Oil Sensor

Hi All

 

I have been getting a 'Oil pressure too low' warning on the Instrument Cluster.

 

I have just attached the durametric and get an oil temperature reading of 54 degrees as it was warming up so all seems OK there. 

 

But I have a 0.00 voltage reading on the Engine Oil Temperature (sensor) so am assuming it is faulty and needs a replacement.

 

I have a 2005 Cayenne 3.2 S so could anyone tell me where the Oil Temperature sensor is  as searching for it has not revealed it. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Oil pressure and oil temperature are two different senors.

I'm not sure this is my engine though..I have a 022Y engine and the oil filter is fitted from the underneath.  In the diagram you have posted it looks like that filter is fitted from above?
