still got an ill golf

[techno-len]

sme of u may have seen my previous posts about my car being very ill any who recieved a phone call today from a fella called bob the god cos there aint nout he cant diagnose/fix anyway he said the car has got low oil pressure and thinks that it is down to an oil pick up filter/gauze that is likely to be blocked ?? anyone heard of this aparently its quite a regular occurance and a relatively easy fix

drain the oil and remove your sump

should be located in there

yeah that was the plan just wondered if anyone else has suffered the same thing also when my car runs like sh!t ie on 2 or 3 cylinders my epc light comes on traction control wont turn on ie the light is on to say its off and the engine man light flashes its doin my f**kin head in

Do NOT start your car again untill you get the oil pump sorted.

its bein done tomorow mornin pal u seem to know the score with it iv been told its causing low oil pressure and the top of the motor is bein starved including my turbo which is why it was whinning

what year is your car mate?

its true the oil pickups suffer problems.. but you almost always get the "stop oil" message along with it

wayne on here had oil pressure problems after a remap, we figured it was a blocked pickup and some good engine flush solved his problems, so maybe try that before you tackle the sump

the traction light coming on is sometimes something completely unrelated to the esp/asr .. most commonly it's the MAF but that usually leaves an engine DTC. A bad maf would make it run like sh!t though. Does it run rough constantly or intermittently?

Wayne had a MK4?

As previous advice, DO NOT start or use that car until it's clear. There will be some small bolts holding it in place, get some Jizer or something and clean the whole sump right out and re fit and pray to all that's holy that your turbo is fine.

the car is an 02 aum since iv had the cat the engine man has been on with the code system to lean bank 1 i put that down to havin a decat the car has not been remapped aparently the switch for the stop oilm low message i well low in the sump so the message pings well to late apparently well i think ill do a few oil changes in quick succession and flush it out to some injector cleaner etc etc i have a price on a brand new turbo which didnt scare me that much what do they retail at ??the car runs fine when u start it and when ur on over run but as of late as u put it under load then runs like sh!t
