On a 2001 Volkswagen Jetta VR6, the oil sensor, or oil pressure switch, is typically located near the oil filter, on the engine block. It resembles a small cylindrical component with an electrical connector on top, often colored black or gray. The sensor usually has a threaded base that screws into the engine, and it may have a warning light symbol or markings indicating its function. Always consult the vehicle's service manual for precise location and specifications.
