eyup Pablo, they have sent you the wrong one, simple.

I had this issue when I bought mine, there are TWO sensors dependent on year. Send it back, get the other one. I can probably find you the correct part code tonight when I get hoem if you like?

absolutey chap.

did you sort it? I think wrong sensor, but its approx £190 for a new one. May be worth getting one from a breaker ....
