Question

Why do oil pressure sensors fail prematurely in turbocharged diesel engines?

Answer

High oil temperature and pressure fluctuations damage sensor internals.

Explain

Turbocharged engines have higher oil pressure. CHEPQ tools test sensor durability under load—replacing with high-pressure-rated sensors extends life by 2-3 years.
