Oil Pressure Light

(1/6) > >>

JayzMk5Turbz:
Was coming home from work and oil pressure light came on saying stop etc so I stopped as soon as I can and switched it off and checked my booklet and it said it could be low oil so I started it back up and drove to the nearest garage which was about 40 seconds away, parked up switched it off, topped up with oil, started it up was fine, started driving again and it came on again along with engine management light and it sounded really rough and tappy, any ideas what it can be?

Oil pickup blocked and/or oil pump failure along with what sounds like pretty serious engine damage

So it's pretty much gone then?

Is there any preventative measure for this?

Seem to hear about it a bit too often.

Drop the sump and replace the pick up pipe
