Philj 0 Posted January 22, 2007 The oil light on my 16v comes on every now n then. When you blip the throttle, it goes away. Car seems to run and go fine. Im hoping its just the pressure sender, but its got high mieage, and happens more often 1/2mins after Ive opened up the throttle, which makes me think its something more sinister like the pump. Anyone got any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RS VR6 0 Posted January 22, 2007 Check and see if its leaking oil around the sender. Another possibility may be the oil pump is going out...maybe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philj 0 Posted January 22, 2007 Yeah Ive got a new sensor on order. Will give that a go. Is there only one pressure sensor? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted January 22, 2007 Mine does this too! Only after I've been giving it some stick! I think the pump maybe on the way out! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philj 0 Posted January 25, 2007 I changed the oil pressure sensors, done an engine flush, put a vag oil filter on, and some syntax silver. No more oil light... Lovely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
