Hi, let me tell you - I'm not a mechanic, but I understand a bit ... I have a problem with the oil pump. When I drive a car, for example 80km / h 4 speeds at 2000 rpm, my lights do not come on, but when I drive down a hill or up a hill, it always comes on and it says Oil pressure: Engine off! Owners manual! I did a big and small service, changed the oil pump, changed the air filter, filled the air conditioning, changed the PC belt, changed the oil pressure sensor but in vain it occurs again at intervals. I drive a Skoda Octavia 2011 2.0TDI 103kw 140hp 6 speed. Does anyone know what the problem is to tell me would mean a lot to me.
Thanks to everyone who responded to my problem with bad oil pressure, just to tell you that I was able to figure out what the problem was. It was about bearings - flying and floating. They were completely use up..if any of you have the same problem again let them look at it first.
@kevriley3255 I remember it needing to be a big job, I saw the same engine at a scrap yard to find where it was, half the engine bay would have to be empty to get to it. Cost of labour would of been an arm n a leg.
@@philfjfry1 oh dear! Not looking great! Thought about looking into the sensor side, but don't want to embark on a fruitless expensive mission to nowhere. It's around the 145,000 mile mark, so might well be at the end of It's useful life. Thanks for your input anyway bud - much appreciated!
