Hi guys , I'm looking for an aftermarket oil pressure gauge as the OE one is playing up , is there an off the shelf kit that fits the Five ??? Or what have you guys used in the past , fittings etc.

Any help appreciated.

Many people use Mocal gauges known for quality/reliability. Two types of gauges, electrical and mechanical, electrical uses a signal, mechanical (capillary) has a pipe that the oil travels up to the gauge. I bought my oil gauge from CGB motorsport, its a capillary type, they also sell modified sandwich plates(where oil filter goes) so all the bits you need to fit it, think they still do them.

I use stack gauges with braided lines and then cover the braiding because it has a nasty habbit of rubbing wireing to pieces else
