Saab Engine Oil Level Sensor - Genuine Saab 24461500

Product Information

An engine oil level sensor monitors the oil level in the engine's oil pan and sends real-time data to the vehicle's ECU (engine control unit). This information helps ensure the engine has enough oil for proper lubrication. The sensor is often used in modern vehicles as an additional safeguard against low oil levels, which could lead to engine damage.

• Oil Level Warning Light: The most common symptom of a failing oil level sensor is the oil level warning light on the dashboard. This light may come on even if the oil level is correct, indicating a malfunction in the sensor itself
• Inaccurate Oil Level Readings: A faulty sensor may cause incorrect oil level readings, showing the level as full when it’s actually low, or vice versa. This can lead to unnecessary oil changes or leave the engine vulnerable to damage if the oil level is actually too low

About Genuine Saab

The original parts used by Saab to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Saab” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Saab, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Saab Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Saab are not necessarily manufactured by Saab. No cause for concern, as Saab designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Saab for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Saab parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Saab logo.
