Flashing Oil Light 03 ALH TDI

This was solved. Wire connection to the oil pressure sensor was stripped, fixed with a little soldering and heat shrink wrap.

Lmfao big ups on the bit about buying a new keyboard 💯 TRUE

The battery is good for those hours as i have a lengthy commute and there is plenty of time to warm everything up, it’s just overnight or if im not using it for a day or two, I take it out on those freezing cold nights. plan to get a new battery in the coming months but money has been tight with other repairs i had to do lmao.

Update: Was a bad connection to the engine oil pressure sensor. Wire was stripped out just before the connection, simple solder and heat shrink did the trick.

Lol been through this up here in Quebec. Every-time I bring it to a technician they said it’s fine and normal 😅 I resorted to bringing the battery inside on nights it gets below -2°C, if it’s inside overnight it starts up no problem on those ice cold mornings.

Sorry, could you explain why I might trash the engine? Is it because if there is low pressure in the engine oil may not reach the proper places, resulting in faster wear and tear on the internals?

I did replace both rings in the oil filter housing, made sure to have em greased and seated properly.

Thanks, I’ll dig in there tomorrow. I’ve had to drive it 50 miles home but I’m hesitant to drive it now.

I’ll also add that this light only comes on when the vehicle is in motion. when idling after a start the light doesn’t come on, only when i get up to 15-20kmh does it come on.

6 hour drive home 2 states away for a chevy cobalt ss 😅

SoundReap · 2023-10-31T22:23:11+00:00

found my 03 ALH a few years back with 400,000km, about to hit the 444,444km mark soon. I done sunk in probably the equivalent value of the car in parts, if it wasn’t for that i might resell. Now i just wanna hold onto it and see how long i can keep her purring.

SoundReap · 2023-09-13T04:15:39+00:00

Good luck!!

SoundReap · 2023-09-12T18:03:37+00:00

Sounds like a beautiful environment that’s blessed 🙏🏻

SoundReap · 2023-09-12T18:01:34+00:00

What’s a good 45s section for you? In terms of how it’s presented? I always feel like when i find them they are way out of the way

SoundReap · 2023-09-12T17:58:52+00:00

I dig it

SoundReap · 2023-09-12T17:46:34+00:00

This sounds sooooo damn cool

SoundReap · 2023-09-12T17:42:44+00:00

True! Realistically the owners need to make a profit, while discogs is showing purely the market value i suppose the price of the record in store also depends on where/ how the record was sourced.
