[s-cars] Oil Pressure Sender Failure

"Anybody else have this part fail?
Seems like a Bizarre failure."

Actually, I've seen this happen quite often while I worked at Audi. It didn't matter if it was a V-6 or I-5, the single pin sensor would have oil coming out of it. It is often missed because they sometimes have a rubber boot going over the single pin wire and onto the sensor itself. I also remember the V-6 oil leak problem that was a flaw in the aluminum casting for the oil pans.
