The oil warning L-board from gasoline 4 cyl VW models 85+ should work in
Vanagon.

There are different parts for diesel or 5 cyl models that are not right.

The boards came made by different suppliers. Some have the VW part
number on them and some don't. That makes buying a loose one a crap
shoot since you may not be certain what engine type is was built for.

321 919 064M = 4 cyl gas
321 919 064N = diesel
321 919 064P = 5 cyl gas
