veedubaddict V Hey guys, new here and not massively mechanically minded i have a problem with my 1.6 FSI engine code BLP it passed its MOT 7 days ago if that helps at all - i had been sitting unused for approx 6 months. The oil pressure warning light and stop popped up not long after setting off i truned the engine off for 5 mins and it didnt comeback on - drove approx 25 miles and just as i turned into my drive the light popped back on again. Ive checked the oil level and it seems ok if not a little high - the oil was very warm when i checked initally and also when i checked two hours later to see if anything had changed. im hoping its the oil pressure switch which should be a cheap enough fix but wanted to get you guys recommendations. any help is massively appreciated #1 · Jul 1, 2015 Hey guys, new here and not massively mechanically minded i have a problem with my 1.6 FSI engine code BLP it passed its MOT 7 days ago if that helps at all - i had been sitting unused for approx 6 months.

The pump pressure will change with engine speed and thicknessof the oil with temperature Is the behaviour consistent and repeat or does the light come on randomly If it's intermittent or flickers and behaves at random that would suggest the plugs/wiring or a faulty switch rather than a genuine oil pressure problem. Check the switch plug and wiring for any sign of damage or corrosion and clean or repair as necessary Check the light comes on constantly with the switch unplugged If everything checks out then change the switch and that should hopefully solve the problem #3 · Jul 1, 2015 more than likely the pick up in the sump but worth checking the above #4 · Jul 2, 2015 Well cheers for the replies im going to have a look at the switch over the weekend - now the brake fluid level handbrake icon has come on !! ive just recently had the rear brake discs,pads and calipers replaced and mot`d it after that with no problems does anyone think that the heat may have something to do with all these warning lights going off - the engine sounds fine and the brakes work well - im starting to get to the end of my tether with this !!
