When I drove the T4 home the red oil light was on and off with a warning noise, the guy said it would be a dirty sensor? Also the spedo, fuel and temperature gauges I don't think are giving a correct reading? The spedo was bouncing all over the show, the fuel gauge was moving around a little and when I was driving the temperature gauge didn't move, when I stooped the tempeture gauge raised a little? Anyone got any experience with these problems? TIAMe cago en la madre que te parió!

Buy yourself the T4 Haynes Manual it's a great little book for getting your head round most jobs. Do some visual checks in the engine bay tracing the looms 1st, look for bodges / wiring repairs, remove the instrument cluster and clean up the plug and connector with contact cleaner.

Very late, but welcome!
I don’t know if you have solved your instrument issues but I had similar problems (not Speedo though) and have found that it was down to poor connections throughout. I have the later clocks. I removed and cleaned / elecrolubed every connection I could get my hands on (including the binnacle and sensor connectors). Last one appears to be the alternator which makes the tacho misread.
Hope this helps or you have solved it...
