Water-in-Fuel Sensor for the Td5 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo diesel fuel filter / sedimentor assembly.

It threads into the base of the fuel filter housing and detects water that has separated from the diesel and collected in the sedimentor bowl, warning the driver to drain it before it can reach the injection system.

This sensor is specific to its fuel filter housing variant; the companion sensor for the alternative Td5 filter housing is WKW500070.
Vehicle Model Land Rover Defender up to 2016
Fitment Notes DEFENDER 1998-2006 — Td5 diesel; water-in-fuel sensor for fuel filter/sedimentor. NOT for Discovery 2 Td5.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Water-in-Fuel sensor do on a Td5?
The Water-in-Fuel sensor detects water that's separated from the diesel and collected in the fuel filter sedimentor bowl on the Td5 2.5L five-cylinder engine. It warns the driver to drain the bowl before that water reaches the injection system. Fitted to the Defender Td5 from 1998 to 2006.
Where is the sensor fitted?
The sensor threads into the base of the Td5 fuel filter housing, sitting in the sedimentor bowl where separated water collects. It's part of the fuel filter and sedimentor assembly, so it's usually accessed while servicing the fuel filter.
Will this sensor fit a Discovery 2 Td5?
No. This Water-in-Fuel sensor is for the Defender Td5 fuel filter housing, not the Discovery 2 Td5. The two use different filter housing variants, so confirm you have the Defender sedimentor housing before ordering.
How do I know I've got the right Td5 water sensor?
There are two Td5 water-in-fuel sensors depending on the fuel filter housing fitted. This one (LR part WKW500060) suits the Defender sedimentor housing; the alternative housing uses WKW500070. Check which filter housing your Td5 has before ordering to avoid a mismatch.
