Hi there, would this fit my mk6 fiesta TDCI?

Hi,
Is it a 1.4TDCi or 1.6TDCi engine
I will check fitment and let you know what size you require, if not this one.

It's a 1.6 tdci

It's a 1.6 tdci

Sorry mate,
The one I'm selling won't fit the 1.6TDCi
If your engine block is the same as my 1.6TDCi with the sensor location under the oil dip stick
Then you need this one.

Same as me, but I haven't purchased yet.

To be 100% sure that your sensor is M16 prior to purchasing the adaptor.
Go to your local DiY store and purchase an M16 nut,
Then try screw the oil pressure sensor in to it.
If it fits then the M16 adaptor is the one for you.
I've logged on to micksgarage.ie and typed in my engine and car model.
Then selected oil pressure sensor.
They then offer to sell the sensor aswell as showing the size and says its M16 on the 1.6TDCi engine.

Got it! thanks for your help, really appriciate it! Do you have any experience timing an engine? Ive taken the cams out of my fiesta to replace the timing chain. Ive aligned the camshaft with the chain correctly but the cams are now going to be out of sync with the rest of the engine? ive never done this before but my friends say that i need to position a bolt into the block to get the first piston at top dead center. Do you know what to do?
Thanks again
Ryan

Hi Ryan,
Glad to read you got it at last, I take it that it is an M16 sized fitment required.
And I've not got experience in engine timing but I gurantee you,
If you purchase the haynes manual for your motor it tells you what size of drill bit smooth end will fit in place to lock the cams aswell as images of the bit in the cam locking it in.
Worth every penny mate, just make sure you buy the diesel version.

Same as me, lol
As you can see from the title of this thread, I've purchased the wrong one before but now need to purchase the M16 one.
