Is it a problem if my oil pressure light comes on for a few seconds when I had my Golf in 5th gear doing 40-45 miles an hour and it started bogging down before I downshifted? :shock:
Thanks

I would not think so ? my rabbit with 260K flickers at idol and then stays nearly solid when warmed up at idol! but i'm sure someone with more knowledge on the oil warning system will chime in?
thanks Duane
Just wondering. I'm fairly new to vw diesels and just had new rings and many other things done. My car is running great, but I saw the oil pressure light come on today for a few moments and was just wondering. I figured it was just my poor shifting but didn't hurt to ask :shock:
Mine has come on before on long sweeping corners when I was going 50-60 ish. I was a bit low on oil and could have used a oil pan baffle of some sort. Is your oil low?
No i am full up on oil. Just had work done and it doesn't appear to be losing any oil at all. I was probably doing 40-45 though and the engine was lugging before I downshifted.
It's pretty common, especially with gas VWs. Next time you change your oil you may want to go a little bit thicker if the light is bugging you.
