As above where are you nice people getting yours from as I need 1 for both of my cavs & vauxhall quoted me £25 each + vat which I think is a tad steep.

There should be loads on ebay.

Typical prices should be between £8 and £12.

Or raid your scrap yard.
Almost every Vauxhall has one of these.
And they are all the same.

Try this - scroll down...
It shows a GM part for about £8

At worst you may have to put your reg number in.

Thanks for that Robsey but that's the sensor for the ECU not the gauge, I'll give them a call when I get 5 minutes.

Perhaps my description isn't very good I meant the one next to the fuel level gauge in the dash cluster.

Ah, got you.

I tend to buy Febi or Bosch parts.
I have seen a couple of Febi sensors on ebay for as little as £4.

So not a bank breaker.
