  • * Had a blinking oil pressure light on my dashboard. And I figured to go to the easiest solution by swapping out my oil pressure switch for a new one
    * You can find a switch at www.fcpeuro.com, very cheap genuine part.
    * If you have any questions or maybe run into a problem feel free to shoot it down below in the comments I don’t know everything but I sure know that this isn’t as hard as everybody else makes it to seem
    (Update): unfortunately for me after testing running the oil pressure problem isn’t fixed but my next best bet is to drop the pan before doing a full oil change and check the screen for the oil pump most likely will have build up of sludge :(
    Specs 2006 Audi A4 Avant with 2.0T FSI Quattro

    We have a 2005 b7 3.2 Quattro that has only 40,000 miles (Nana’s car until my teenagers took it over) and it suddenly threw low oil pressure and low coolant warnings simultaneously. Engine has been running fine. Recent oil change and spark plugs replaced. Trying to figure out how to replace the oil pressure sensor in this engine- but it seems to be a very rare engine. If you have any ideas about why this set of warning lights and/or where this sensor is, would love to have your input.

    • @scuffedgarage8519
      @scuffedgarage8519  5 лет назад +1

      Well I actually still have a oil pressure problem so unfortunately it wasn’t a faulty oil pressure sensor. So it’s most likely a clogged oil pick up which is a pain to remove. Mine does the same thing typically under 2500 rpms and under any thing above that it seems to disappear under high rpm load

    Did you check the condition of your cam follower? Was it ever replaced? Not a 100% sure how often, but I think cam follower lasts 30-60k km. If it’s not replaced in time it wears off and breaks. Then these small metal pieces could be anywhere inside your engine damaging internal components; most common oil pump, turbocharger or even camshaft chain. Just google cam follower replacement and you’ll see it yourself. Most people complaining about German vehicles not reliable, but the problem is not the vehicle it self it’s the scheduled maintenance service they skipped... Plus dump mechanics with limited knowledge.
    Even if you perform your own service, you need to know what parts or fluids need to be replaced.
    You need to remember, any vehicle needs service, not just an oil change.
    Cars like girls, you need to look after them or they will slap you in the face and dump you...

      @@scuffedgarage8519 How's your valve cover gasket? Was it replaced? With age, it turns to hard plastic. It doesn't only leak oil, but breaks into small pieces and washed off with oil down the engine. The pick up tube oil screen can be clogged because of that. Valve cover gasket is cheap and really easy to change. I really don't know what other solutions to offer. Did you remove the oil pan? It's pain in the ass, but if you did, try to inspect your oil pump or better remove it and inspect it. Most likely the problem in your oil pump, grided shaft or broken tooth. Also, check the chain on oil pump and tensioners.

      @martinee4901 3 года назад

      Probably the rear coolant flange. It's a cheap & easyish fix.
      The thermostat housing units probably in the same condition, so if it suddenly starts running cold = thermostat housing, replace the crankcase ventilation hose part at the same time since it's cheap & the same amount of work to get to it.

Easiest way to find it is to remove the black trim near the back of the supercharger with the Audi logo, and look there near the oil filter. Its pretty deep in there, I could barely get my hand down there. I ended up buying an OEM sensor and paying a shop $60 bucks to take care of it for me.

I suspect the oilpump is bad, or something. My car sudently got converted into a diesel (sounds like a diesel engine, tick tack tack tick) and the oil pressure light came on, right before I got home. like 200-500 meters away from my house, fucking shit.....
