T-


I had a similar problem on my Jetta, and the sender was the wrong one (this
was from the dealer as well. Beyond the stamping on the bottom with "bar"
rating, there *should* be a color difference. Mine is a Turbo Diesel and
they put a "gas" sender. Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.


There are (believe it or not) at least four different colors for VW
pressure senders, each with a different pressure rating, blue, white,
black, and brown...don't ask which is which, you are just supposed to be
smart enough (as a mechanic) to put the same color back...kind of like
those kids clothes, Garranimals, you just match them up, Tigers with
Tigers, Giraffes with Giraffes, blue pressure senders replace blue pressure
senders.


Cheers,
