How would I check oil pressure? There is no leak by the looks of it and the level is now good... :undecided:

Most likely the sensor

You can fit a new one or code it out  :lipsrsealed:

Yea I was meant to scan it this weekend but forgot my laptop! I defo have oil in it, and it isn't oil pressure. I guess I'll just keep an eye on it until I get a new one fitted.

Cheers peeps.
