100% blocked oil pick up pipe, Drain oil, take of sump and give it a good clean or replace strainer about £70 from dealers
then you just need oil and sealent :happy2:
wont be anything else, esp if oil level fine and no oil in your coolant

So.. cut a long story short advancing on here as there are over 50 pages to through this thread. I’ve had same problem and car now won’t start. Any update is the car was fixed in the end or a engine write off?

I know and wholly accept my car engine is completely gone. I will not be taking parts off to put my mind at ease from here onwards. Best thing to do is accept the fatality owed in driving habits. It’s that simple.

Tom was lucky - the chain had snapped, no damaged was done and he got away with a new chain & tensioner. He did not drive 60 miles with no oil pressure
