URGENT oil pressure stop engine
doylebros:
When turning it over by hand it will become tougher on the compression stroke but if it feels really stubborn don't try and start it cause it will be just more damage to sort out.
If it does do two full turns with a ratchet and socket from the crank bolt then try starting it. If it runs switch it off and check the sump for oil leaks and report your findings.
Pesky jones:
@r5gtt thanks mate any advice to keep costs down is much apreciated
@doylebros thanks, sounds like good advice!
Pesky jones:
One thing I have failed to mentio (I hope I havnt screwed up) is that on the day of the incident, after I swtched the engine off when I came of the track I scanned it, which is where I got the code from. I then cleared the fault naively believing that it might sort it out. I scanned it tonight with VCDS and the fault hasnt come back.
Also as a side note, the car is in my girlfriends garage, and as im walking ( :fighting:) home past one of her neighbours, theyve just bought a lovely condition steel grey five door (like mine) and I have to look at it every time :sick: :sad1:
r5gtt:
That's like a slap in the face :surprised:
hurry up and get it back together bud :popcornsoda:
Pesky jones:
Me too mate me too.
When I had the ignition partially turned on to scan with VCDS, I heard a humming start for a while, I know its a long shot, but that's not the oil pump trying to take oil round again is it? Be excellent if it was because then it might start with fresh oil.
