Unplug the 1-wire connector from the oil pressure switch and see if the switch is leaking oil.

i did that but no there is no leaking oil

When was the last oil change?

Sounds like low oil pressure when the oil is thin with the engine hot in traffic.

Could possibly be the oil pump on the way out.

I think it is probably worth fitting a replacement pressure switch just because they are quite cheap.

Has there been any recent change in fuel consumption or engine smoothness?

well in city drive the fuel consumption it's littel higher but out of city it's normal 5.5l/100km.Engine it's working perfect

Definitely worth trying before anything else.

I had the same problem and changed the sensor, and then the problem was gone. Else good pressure on these engines I think.

@VilsonG - I'd agree with all the other people who think the problem is most likely to be the oil pressure switch.
