Frequently asked questions

What does the oil pressure sensor do?

The oil pressure sensor monitors engine oil pressure in the lubrication circuit and signals the oil pressure gauge or warning lamp on the dash. It threads into the oil filter housing or oil pump gallery, reading pressure at the main oil feed. This sensor is for the 3.5L V8 petrol engine.

Which Land Rovers does this V8 oil pressure sensor fit?

This oil pressure sensor fits the 3.5L V8 petrol engine in the Land Rover Defender, Series 3 (Stage 1 V8) and Range Rover Classic. It reads pressure at the oil filter housing or oil pump gallery on these V8 applications.

What are the signs the oil pressure sensor is failing?

A failing oil pressure sensor typically shows a dropping, erratic or dead oil pressure gauge, or a warning lamp that stays on or flickers when oil pressure is actually fine. Oil weeping from the sensor body is another common sign. Confirm real pressure with a mechanical gauge before replacing.

Is DRC1596 an alternative to this sensor?

DRC1596 is listed as an alternative code for this oil pressure sensor. If you find either number on your engine or in a parts list, they typically interchange for the 3.5L V8. Confirm the thread and connector match your oil filter housing before fitting.
