    i bought an oil pressure gauge to fit to my tdi. the thread on the back of the sender is 1/8 NPT but the one on the car is M10. this is where the factory oil pressure switch go's in to the oil filter housing. i need to get a T piece that has a M10 male and female threads plus female 1/8 NPT.. anyone any idea where i could get one?? i tried ebay but no luck. i need to be able to put back in the stock sensor as well as the sensor for the gauge..

    Am I correct in saying that the gauge is electric rather than using a capillary oil line?

    Contact the supplier/manufacturer and see if a M10 thread sender is available. Most of the oil Tee pieces use the same thread on the three sides
