Review on Standard Motor Products TS448 Sender by Ron Josey

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Every bit is as high quality as OEM, AFAICT.

Every item is OEM quality, AFAICT. As with ALL of these sensors (Volvo OE included) you have to be VERY careful about over tightening them. You basically twist it until it touches the ground with your hand, and then twist it half a turn. A little more and the threads come loose from the base and you have a sensor leak - this happened on my Volvo OE sensor (lesson learned!). This sensor is also very accurate as it is within 1°C of the IR temperature tool I use, which is more accurate than the Volvo sensor (which cuts out at 5°C when fully hot and at 8°C when it's cold).

Pros
  • Fit Type: Vehicle Specific
Cons
  • Doubtful
