Boost Gauge Pressure Sending Unit Problem
Hello Pelican -
I am having an interesting problem. Since I've purchased my 930 in January, I've gone through two pressure sending units for the boost gauge. First one I put in lasted <100 miles, and second probably even less. Both work properly, then suddenly the boost needle gets stuck at 1.5 bar (77 Turbo Carrera). Luckily our host is awesome enough to warranty the piece... but is my car killing these pressure sending units? Of course, no fuses are blown because as soon as I plug a new one in, everything is dandy! Piece is Made in Germany by VDO. Host Part # 993-606-103-01-M100. First sending unit had reminisce of dap oil on it (blow by?), but nothing else major.
Any guidance would be much appreciated. While I get the warranty work, it's annoying to keep sending things back and forth. Perhaps it's just a coincidence?
