All
I have a 2017 with about 8k miles on it. Thus far, no oil leaks or useage but I always make a point to check everything before I drive it- including the oil pressure sensor.
I have noticed that the reference lines are no longer aligned ( they were about 500 miles ago) and I believe the sensor is starting to back out (see picture)
I suspect that the dealer will tell me that unless it’s leaking they will not fix it and I would rather not wait until it starts leaking to take it in for repair.
I am thinking about removing it myself and reasealing it based on the service manual instructions (use the sealant, torque to 150 inch pounds and another 180* after that.
Should I leave well enough alone or fix this before it becomes an issue?
Thank you!
