Han did the tappets become noisy when the buzzer went off, if so you have genuine low oil pressure if not it's probably a sensor.
If you do have low oil pressure ask the garage to whip the sump off and check the gauze on the oil pump pickup for blockages. The missus' mk2 developed a low oil pressure problem and the buzzer kept going off I cleaned all the carbon crap off the gauze and it was fine afterwards.
Defiantely worth trying if funds are running low.

Yes but do they work with golfs? You may go round and round in circles until you get a specialist to look at it.. who might sort the problem in 5 mins (as phils example).

No normal garage, no matter how much they big themselves up, can even come close to a genuine vw specialist when you have a fault to fix.

Completely agree with this, in fact I had an independent VW specialist correctly diagnose a fault over the phone, that the VW dealer couldn't fix !  and this was on a modernish dub too!

Take it to a garage who know what an engine looks like Han otherwise your just throwing money at some spanner monkey. VAG specialist is a hassle but well worth it there is one in Leeds with a good reputation I know of if you are stuck. :)
