How to fix Oil Pressure Failure Readout on Skoda Laura (Octavia) TDI ?

Featured Replies

Have anyone come across the warning light and readout display of Oil Pressure Failure, and the car stops, but there is no leak and the oil levels are normal ?

The garage ran a scan and find the speed sensor had a problem. They cleaned it and it worked fine for a few days and then the warnings reappeared and the car stalled.

Earlier the car would restart after a few minutes, but now the engine keeps turning over but doesn't start anymore either

Further to my earlier post, Its been found on my car that the cam speed sensor isnt working properly, needs to be changed, could that be a reason for the Warning of the Oil Pressure Failure light coming on and the car stalling at times?

Definitely a reason for stalling but not sure how it would connect to the oil pressure light unless this only comes on once stalled?

That's exactly what I was perplexed by... And the oil pressure failure warning message comes on while driving. Sometimes it will drive on and sometimes it stalls. When it stalls I used to be able to start her up after a minutes wait. But lately it's not been starting up either, though the starters turning fine

Low pressure light/warning will come on after a few seconds of cranking the engine, quite correct as the oil pressure will be low at that point. If the engine restarts, the oil pressure warning will go out.
