Merry Christmas!
The car is now 18+ years old, but the mods will not stop here :).

A random low oil pressure warning means your engine isn't getting enough lubrication, often due to low oil, a failing pump, worn internal parts, or a bad sensor/connection, and you should stop driving and shut off the engine immediately to prevent severe damage, then check your oil level and call for a tow if needed.

So as some may know I have been battling this issue for quite a while now.
The car is running a stage 1 tune for around 2 years. And before someone goes in the direction that something is wrong with the tune. I already tried 5 different ones. With the same results.

Hey, thanks for the reply. Just borrowed another code reader and its the rear left speed sensor. Thanks for the tip I'll look to replace the hub aswell. That explains why I couldn't reset the steering light, cheers.

Cheers both. I have swapped the ignition housing (not a nice job at all) and what I did in order for my old key to be able to do both the ignition and the door is take the old lock cylinder and fit it to the new ignition barrel. The key now turns freely and car now starts fine but I have an issue.
