So you've gone for the chav look then mate? Not my opinion, but JamesT5s.

[AAnickmac]

what turbo is that that your fitting? have you had or are you getting a remap?

[c70geoff]

remap will be soon young sir

[c70geoff]

starting to loose the plot again
oil pressure switch changed and oil light keeps flashing on and off
oil level spot on no leaks so what the actual f@$£

[AAnickmac]

Sounds like might be pump. Have you got correct grade oil. Too thin may cause light to flicker a bit with slightly worn pump. I hope it's something silly. Checked the wiring from switch? Not rubbed through anywhere has it.

The other suggestion given to me by Oblark when I had the same problem on the cabbie was the pressure relief valve sticking.

The "O" rings in the sump can cause this problem, pull the dip stick with engine running if it's covered with tiny bubbles it worth looking at,does this happen when the oil is only hot or when it's cool ?.

[c70geoff]

gonna do full flush and refill tomorrow and check all above suggestions in process cheers guys

checked wiring all fine
could be that im running fully synth 5w30 but thats what the interweb said to use and my main stealer

It's basically a sprung loaded ball bearing on the outlet of the oil pump, they can stick, and stop oil flow.

I run 5W30 in my C70 with no problems mate.
