What to do When Your Oil Light Comes on! | VW & Audi

[@poorgermanboy]

Throughout the video and in many of the comments, I heard the yellow oil can symbol being referred to as the oil pressure warning, which is technically not correct. The oil pressure warning is red and the oil can blinks to attract your attention. It also says OIL PRESSURE underneath the oil can. If you get this warning then you must pull over as quickly as can be done safely and immediately shut the car off or risk the possibility of severe engine damage. In contrast, a steady yellow oil can light means your oil Level is lower than it should be. It is intended to alert the driver to check the oil level at their earliest opportunity, but it is not an emergency situation requiring immediate action. The low oil alert typically comes on when your oil level is about 1 qt below the normal level, which is well above the critically low level whereby the oil pickup tube is no longer below the surface of the oil. This light can also come on for a variety of reasons other than the oil level being low, e.g. failing to reset the Service Reminder Indicator (SRI) after an oil change, a defective oil level sensor and even a defective hood latch switch. I have experienced all three of these scenarios with my 2009 Audi A6.

Simple check to make sure your oil pressure circuit is working is to check for the dash light when your key is in the run position, just before starting. All the warning lights should be on, which tells you the circuits are good. If they go out after starting, all good.

Some 500 to 600 miles for 1qt of engine oil 5w-40. 2013 Audi Q5 3.0T. Already flushed some $5000 on repairs-water pump, oil separator, valve cover gaskets, the short tube between the oil separator and supercharger, some hoses. The coolant issue was resolved. But the engine oil consumption issue is not resolved.

[@bmuns6445]

Bought a used 2014 VW GLI with 53k in valley outside LA. Used the recommended Castrol oil to 10k miles. Had my oil light come on once and downtown VW dealer topped me off for free. But after watching Scotty Kilmer videos I began changing oil every 5k miles. I switched from Castrol to Blie Liqui Moly oil and it burned WAY less oil. Then I moved to the green Liqui Moly Molygen oil. My car burns WAY less oil now. I change every 5k. I never drive my car until RPMs fall back to 750. My car runs like a dream.

similar problem with my 2001 golf 1.4 gasoline. after 20-25 min driving, the red oil warning shows up intermittently with stop warning. Several times I changed the pressure sensor. I changed the oil several times as well. The oil pan and its filter cleaned. It had some metallic dust in it. But still I see same warning. The mechanic told me the oil pump is OK. Also I start hearing knocking noise from the engine and another noise appeared after I drive 30 min, the engine noise becoming like a diesel engine when only I am accelerating. What do you think?

When your "electric dipstick" breaks (oil level sensor) put tape over the wires so you don't blow a fuse, clear the code and drive home. I've been driving this way for two weeks now and the code didn't come back. I have the 200 dollar electric dipstick but need new wiring and plug as well. All parts sold separately I've recently learned. I might sell the electic dipstick and not worry about it.

[@davidweum]

I just had a reconditioned and reprogrammed ECM put in my car last Thursday, April 20, 2023. "Change oil" indicator came on and often flashed. The oil was ok. I called my mechanic. He reset dash signal by pressing knob on dash for about 20 seconds once or twice. It went away. I also had a coolant light on. I've fixed that before by jumping the attachment or switch that came up to coolant resevoir sensor. I disconnected it and jumped it with a paper clip thus rendering it inoperable. Coolant is perfect I changed it all myself a couple of years ago.

[@WyndStryke]

I know two different people who blew up their engine by (over)filling it with oil after getting an oil *pressure* light. In both cases their dipstick tip had previously snapped off (they seem to be fragile when old). So my advice would be to always replace the dipstick if the end snaps off, they're pretty cheap.

[@WyndStryke]

@Ivan Morozov There are lots of ways it can cause damage. For a diesel, you can get a run-away situation if the excess oil starts to be burned as fuel. Additionally (for any vehicle), the oil can get foamed up and may not be able to be pumped any more, or it can cause over-pressure, or in extreme cases you might get hydrolock. I can't post links here otherwise youtube will block the comment, but if you google for it you will find each of these explained in more depth.

I've just learned about the Oil Level Sensor, connecter and wires. I accidentally snapped the wire driving on unsealed roads when a stick got caught under my engine and ripped the wire out. I was stranded until I worked out how to get the car started. What happens is when the wires go bad, you go into limp mode and you blow a dash fuse and your car won't start up. You need to reset the computer to delete codes and replace the fuse, she'll fire up. I was stranded for 2 nights before figuring it out.

[@Janet_Airlines802]

A lot if times it that stupid strainer in the oil pan on VW's. The brilliant engineering of VW on my b5.5 passat put a cross member across half the oil pan. In order to take pan off you have to brace the motor from the stop and remove the cross member.

This video should just say that if you see oil pressure warning light - it is the only chance you can get saving the engine - and how fast you react to it (in less than a second...) determines how much damage your engine just got...

[@rkan2]

1 second @ 1500rpm = 25 rotations.. if you get there in 500ms, that's less than 20 rotations, which with a low oil pressure shouldn't do much damage... without any oil pressure your engine will still probably work, but the damage will depend on the engine I guess. There are probably videos on KZbin on how much damage you get. :)

Personally I think not changing or checking your oil should be a capital offence. However, there are YT videos of engines running without oil for considerable time.

It drives fine they took it on a trip for over 500 miles after that but the light no matter what they did is still on every single time they drive it. Camshaft sensor was damaged as well I personally replaced it for them but I also mentioned dont drive the car unless VW runs the full scan on it. They just got back from the trip and light is still on and I look like A FOOL! I know there is something underlying issue but I dont know what could it be. It happens the minute you drive it at 25mps but car runs smoothly. Any thoughts @ShopDap!

same problem bud' I replaced oil pump, oil pressure switch and crank shaft with new rings and bearings and most importantly I repaired my Turbo professionally. why do I still get the Oil pressure low/Switch off engine sign? this is so terrifying. my car is at 176km, haven't drove it for long distance.
