Hello there. I'm trying to replace my car's oil pressure switch. I've been having trouble reaching let alone removing it. Do you guys have any ideas from where that be possible? I've been thinking if I remove the things that hold the air filter would it be possible then.

Hi,

I need confirmation on something. My manuals are only showing a 2.4L automatic for 2003. Is that what you have?

If it isn't, take a few pics of the engine compartment and upload them. I should be able to tell you what to remove for access. Also, the sensor should be on the side of the engine block. Let me know if yours is like that and if it is at the front or rear of the engine. I attached a pic of the 2.4L.

Let me know.

Joe

Hello. That's about the right place if it's an AWD should be the same thing. Mine is a 2.0 with manual transmission.

Hi,

Most likely it is similar. Just for curiosity, are you in the US? I ask because I looked through two manuals and can't find a 2.0L in either. Just curious.

Take care,

Joe
