Oil light coming on after driving few mins?

[sportsman]

Hi guys new member.

I know nothing at all on engines! I have a 02 Vito 108cdi and after a minute or so the oil light comes on and stays on. Mechanic i know put his machine on and it came up a sensor.
Do i have to go to main dealer or is there somewhere i can get one from. If so what exactly is it called and about how much and is it easy for him to fit?

Cheers guys.

It will be the oil level sensor located in the sump. Not tricky to fit and best bought from a dealer.

Cheers. Any idea roughly how much for one?

Hello just curious what engine size you have Thanks

It may be the same 2.2 cdi engine as fitted to the later W202 2.2CDi C class or the early W203 model. If so then this may be of use--item 50 Êàòàëîã
about £56 from Inchcape. Mercedes-Benz Parts, Inchcape Essential to quote your chassis number when ordering!!!!!
